We run the test-suite as part of the Debian build (that's why I
noticed the failure). So this is a serious issue for the Debian build.
But sure, if it's too much of a hassle, I'll just add the missing
files as a downstream patch.

My assumption was, that other distros probably run the test-suite as
well, so all have to repeat that work.
So it seemed more sensible to me to release a fixed upstream tarball.

But as said, it's not a huge deal for me (Debian), just some additional work.
