No explanation of /why/ we want to build this by default ? The source header calls it a demo application and it has no man page. Given this IMHO we should *not* be building & installing it by default, as doing so defacto turns it into a user tool we have to support. On Mon, Feb 04, 2019 at 09

Hmm I do think we want to build the contrib tools, otherwise they bitrot too quickly, witness follow-up patches that fix the compilation. And I think we need tests that actually use them. However I agree adding them to tools and installing is probably rushing things, e.g. there's no manpage even.
