There was a one with "E.g:" followed by an incomplete sentence that
did not parse for me. Can you fetch 'pu', run format-patch on your
topic and compare the output with what you sent to the list?

That indicates that one necessary patch to add logic to Makefile to
go and build that subdirectory, at least before running the test,
but possibly as part of the "all" target, is missing, isn't it?
Or you can add, at the beginning of your tests files that require
the contrib bit, to have something like
if test -e "$GIT_BUILD_DIR/remote-svn"
then
test_set_prereq REMOTE_SVN
fi
and protect your tests with the prerequisite, e.g.
test_expect_success REMOTE_SVN 'test svn:// URL' '
...
'
without changing the top-level Makefile.
