Sorry -- missed that :(

So.  I'm trying to adhere to a blanket "always package tests as %doc" rule on
the theory that even if I don't find it useful, someone else might, and if I
were that someone I'd far rather look in %doc than pull the source from CPAN. 
(A variant of the "one man's garbage" maxim, one might say.)  However, you're
right, it's difficult to imagine a situation in which this test could be useful.
 (Unless, say, someone were looking for the test suite as an entity, or
wondering how it was tested; however that's really a "meta-use" I suppose.)

I included it just to be consistent in the practice of including them.

In this case I could be dissuaded from this; I'd probably generate and include a
README.tests with something like "test suite worthless as documentation" inside
just to keep people from wondering where it is, however.
