Agreed. I wonder whether it would be feasible to keep just the contents
of the ltp/testcases/kernel/security/selinux-testsuite directory as a
separate tarball (on sf.net or tresys.com?) with a simple runme.pl
script to compile and run itself. Then whenever testcases are added,
integrate them into the ltp subsystem (which by a quick look at
the makefiles should be trivial) and occasionally copy back into the full
ltp tree.
