Ned Deily <n...@acm.org> added the comment: (Addressing your aside: one case where the tests are not run in a build directory is with binary installers. For instance, the Mac OS X installers we provide include all of the test modules and it is normal to run them after installation, quite possibly on a system that does not have all the build tools to build a Python much less a build directory.)
