[Isocops] nightly carnage

He indeed installed a new ephemeris, the problem is that the nightly
build uses this one.

Unless code has been changed (which I doubt) only orbit series
6 and 7 are available for this sort of thing.

The build testsuite uses series 8 and 9 in a number of places
(i.e. all the ones that broke last night).

0..5 are used operationally.  (2..5 only when an ephemeris changes,
so these are briefly available--i.e. between times when FDG gives
us something.)

So:
 a) disable all the tests that broke, or
 b) reinstall 8 back to the test ephemeris....
 c) change the tests to use series 0
 d) other options

Your choice.
