 No, it's not that simple. Actually need to use $(top_srcdir) just
indicates the real problem, which is that test script lives in
srctree. Given that fix to problems of that category easily take
significant amount of work, and oe does not need the tests, I think
it's ok to leave these to upstream (should file bugreports, of
course).
