Hi,

Jim Meyering asked me[1] to add a test case to make sure my change is 
working as intended. However, I'll drop it, since it the exact file 
names are internal not documented or guaranteed to the public.

I'll send an updated patch that squashes the files into one and drops 
the test that checks for the exact object file names (keeping yours).
