Some thoughts: A. We could include a test that all the binaries named in TEST_PROGRAMS_NEED_X are also named in t/helper/.gitignore. That way tests would fail if this ever falls out of date again. B. Even better would be if we could have /t/helper/test-* in .gitignore. E.g. if we rename test-*.c to *.c (e.g. t/helper/ctype.c instead of t/helper/test-ctype.c), then the test helper source file names would be easier to type and maintaining this .gitignore would become a problem of the past. What do you think? Jonathan
