Oh, sorry, I'd missed that enabling the tests is part of the Ubuntu
delta (what we're building is a modified Ubuntu package). You're quite
right, this doesn't affect Debian until/unless you start running the
tests at build-time. Sorry, I shouldn't have opened this bug without
confirming that the symptoms existed in the Debian build.
The Ubuntu build also skips quite a lot of tests - enabling them is
clearly not trivial.
I'm still waiting for my test-build for this patch to get as far as
actually running a test :-/ but hopefully it works.
