Technically most of the tests needs gdcmData (a set of DICOM files)
which is not shipped. Also gdcm when testing is ON compiles a few more
classes, which I did not want to be present in release dist.
Having said that, test suite is much more important than those, I'll
turn the test suite back on and check why this is failing on sparc.
