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.)
