The instructions in build/README say to only link when doing it in a
branch. I did track the problem down to a commit that removed
20_aux_tlds.cf from MANIFEST along with another rules file, saying it
should come from sa-update. Even if I put them back, there are still
other tests breaking that seem to require one or more rules files that
never were in MANIFEST. This seems to be a new problem in 4.0 that only
shows up when running make test from a distribution tarball, not from a
trunk svn checkout, and so wasn't noticed until now. We can continue
this in the new bug comments.

I don't know if you can run a make test on an rc release without doing
an ln -s to the rules dir in an svn checkout. If you follow the steps
in the build/README file, and there are like three ln -s commands that
might help.
