I’ll have a go at it in the next few days, then maybe we can add an installable component to produce a test package. I was pretty disappointed that the  “testsuite-tools” component we have basically links back to the in-tree tests; It’s not really “installable".

A standalone test package is something we really want, but I suspect
it might turn into a non-trivial project.
