Well, allow me to be really nitpicky on this one.

Such changes are just noise, right?  As such, I don't think they improve
the testsuite, they only add work to possible history digging later.

Why this change?  To me, this is just more complex noise, because harder
to understand; or is there an actual bug in the test fixed by this?

Again, this moving of $ACLOCAL is noise, right?

The rest seems good for maint, thanks.
