Thanks a lot!. I've created bugreport in upstream tracker. And for now
I'll repack tarball and remove these files at all.

Well. All failed tests are actually upstream issues. Some files required
for them are not present in orig tarball at all. I've reported this to
upstream. Also one test is probably outdated. For now I think that it's
better to not enable tests until they are fixed.

Thanks a lot for your feedback
