The following works for me:

$ git diff tests/Makefile.am
diff --git a/tests/Makefile.am b/tests/Makefile.am
index a262c7b..2441742 100644
--- a/tests/Makefile.am
+++ b/tests/Makefile.am
@@ -833,12 +833,12 @@ vircaps2xmltest_LDADD = $(LDADDS)

 domaincapstest_SOURCES = \
        domaincapstest.c testutils.h testutils.c
-domaincapstest_LDADD = $(LDADDS)
-
 if WITH_QEMU
 domaincapstest_SOURCES += testutilsqemu.c testutilsqemu.h

 if WITH_LIBVIRTD
 libvirtdconftest_SOURCES = \

Not sure if it's the "right" solution, but I'm at least able to avoid
the cycle of apply, build, remove, build.
