Would implementing it that way mean that:

  make && cd t && make

does not work (or worse, might silently use stale information in
test-bin)? Dealing with this is part of the reason the valgrind code
(which similarly sets up a pseudo-installed directory) does everything
in test-lib.sh, and not as part of the make process.
