The secret I overlooked is that the code fragment needs to be in a
different directory.  The error message is kind of misleading, took a
bit of head scratching.  My knee-jerk would probably have been to put
the code in its own directory anyway, but when you are throwing together
a quick test ...

OK, so that works pretty well, and in response to David's suggestion, it
looks like a real good one.
