Through testing I found out again that DejaGNU does not cope with white

relative or absolute. That obviates my first point. Remains only the
fairly minor src+build-tree relocatability point.
Hi Ralf,
I remember a problem with gcc's 'make check' that could be related. Some
tests failed when `pwd -L` was different from `pwd -P`, presumably due to
the two different srcdir's.
I could avoid this problem by first doing 'cd `pwd -P`'.
