I'm pretty sure.  it's not like test_clean won't be called under normal
'make test' circumstances, it's just that now there would be a way around it
if the user thinks it is beneficial.

Oh, now I remember where it was used. In the httpd-dev test suite: 'make test' was always nuking .so files and ssl stuff, which was a pain in an arse. But I don't know why Doug programmed it this way. It wasn't us who introduced that change.


If yes, then +1


ok, cool.  if things blow up then I'll revert it, but I'm not seeing any
problems on my end.

Why not just run t/TEST directly instead of using make? I never use make
when developing tests. So it was never an issue for me.


t/TEST works fine for smallish things, but make is nice for automatically
computing and including library directories spread out all over the place.
