If you like the easy way, just set the environment variable LIBRARY_PATH (or 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH) before running the tests so it finds the library "kakasi".

Something like

(arguments
 ...
 #phases
 (modify-phases %standard-phases
   (add-before 'check 'check-set-library-path
      (lambda x
        (setenv "LIBRARY_PATH" (getcwd)) ; or wherever the library is; maybe 
extend the existing LIBRARY_PATH instead if needed.
        (apply (assoc-ref %standard-phases 'check) x)))

It's not like the tests will be installed or anything...
