I started with the testprogram in your git repo, but I don't think
there's much left of that code now. I then added tests from your
internet draft.

That's already done... Try examples/nettle-benchmark chacha.

Testing could be improved, quoting the comments in chacha-test.c:

  /* FIXME: For rounds == 20, use crypt function, support more than
     one block, and test various short lengths. */

For testing various lengths, one should also have a small redzone around
the destination area, to check for overwrites.
