As far as I understand Daniel's intention, "make tests" should still be
the official way to test the library on linux & friends, and
runtest/runsuite are there for those plattforms which cannot run the
script driven tests; this includes the python-driven tests.
Additionally runtest/runsuite make debugging of the tests
easier.
But I don't see any arguments against extending the Makefile based
tests if one needs it.
