I set this up back when I was doing most of my work using Ubuntu LTS 10.04, and the positively ancient versions of libacl, libaio, xfsprogs-dev, etc., weren't compatible with the bleeding edge of xfstests. So I used this build environment so I wasn't dependent on the vagrancies of whatever happened to be in Ubunutu LTS 10.04. The makefiles in xfstests-bld will also generate a tar file containing the necessary xfstests and xfsprogs binaries which I could then drop into a debootstrap environment (I'm currently using a x86-32 Debian unstable chroot) which I then use in my KVM image. So it allows me to get and build the very latest version of xfstests from git.kernel.org in a highly automated fashion.
