I'm pushing this, to let the test skip in this case.

Cheers, and thanks again,

    Fix test failure when pkg.m4 is not found, only pkg-config.
    
    * tests/vala5.test: Update comment, this test is not expected to
    fail any more.  Require valac version 0.7.0.  Skip if configure
    fails, could be due to unexpanded PKG_CHECK_MODULES or too old
    valac.
