Comment(by duncan):
I would welcome a tests/README file.
The following works for me:
{{{
cd cabal/
cabal configure -O0 && cabal build
cd tests/
cabal configure -O0 --package-db=../dist/package.conf.inplace
cabal build
./dist/build/suite/suite
}}}
Due to the problem with QC, the configure step for the testsuite will warn
about the fact that it's pulling in two versions of the Cabal library.
Using the attached QC patch would be another solution.
