We need to clean up our headers, which is a bigger problem. Most tests
do not need all the stuff in tst_test.h. It is just a load of unecessary
work.

Cleaning up the headers is a big challenge. It would be easier if we
know what will break older distros. So I suggest adding something like:

#ifdef _X_H
# error "You should include X before Y ..."
#endif

to one or more headers.

Otherwise I'm fine with the above solution as a "temporary" fix.
