I think it's pointless, the test harness uses a separate copy of sqlite built as part of the test suite, if we were to use this we'd be testing different code than we're packaging. At least with the current method it's from the same source tree. > Last I talked with DRH about this, he was fairly adamant that since the > sqlite people do plenty of testing, we should just be confident with the > amalgamation.

I'm certain they are doing a lot of testing (they have a larger set of proprietary tests too), but since the code we're using is modified and we're running on unusual arch (hppa, etc), I think we are justified in wanting to do our own tests.
