Testing via a Gnulib testdir is also necessary:
* For testing the module descriptions. When you test via coreutils, you
are testing only a specific use. You will rarely detect a missing module
dependency when testing via coreutils only.
* It encourages adding unit tests to Gnulib. These unit tests in return
make it less important to test via coreutils.

Then the one in coreutils will have to be deleted, because it conflicts
with the one from Gnulib.

For Gnulib, I pushed my change. For coreutils, I don't know what you have
submitted so far.
