I've fixed the problems spotted by Pádraig Brady in the first round, http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.coreutils.general/1138 and have merged all code-changing commits into Karl's initial one. This is rebased against the current head, and does compile ;-) and passes all tests.

This new test, "tests/split/filter" is in a new, otherwise-empty directory. There were enough tests/misc/split* (6) tests that moving them into their own seems worthwhile. I'll do that separately.
