libc-test is not well organized for running it out of tree,
it uses gnu make to run the tests and generate the reports now
so the target needs make as well
otherwise it looks ok
btw if tests are run as root then a bit more interfaces can be
tested (setuid, permission failure handling, etc) which are
not yet in the scope of libc-test
