Yes, in retrospect I probably should have split off patches 6, 7,
8, and maybe 5 (5-7 fix issues that patch 8 exposes in the test suite)
into a separate patch series.  When or if a v2 is needed, should
I split them off then?

Actually, I'm (poorly) alluding to some comments in the original patch
8 email, where I pointed out an expected conflict with the valgrind
patches.  To briefly recap, there are at least 3 possible strategies
of resolving such a conflict, and I'm not sure which makes the most
sense: Keep valgrind design, and extend it with limited bindir
support.  Keep limited bindir design and extend it with valgrind
support.  Or keep both, and have the runtime setup logic make
them mutually exclusive.
