I downloaded the debian package of xfslibs-dev, built it, then
manually copied libhandle/libhandle.la into /lib and then I could build
xfstests-dev.
Please see https://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/LAFileRemoval for a
reason not to include the .la file. In fact, it is explicitly removed
during the Debian package build. Most probably, you can configure
xfstests-dev not to require a libhandle.la file.
