I'm not sure we understood each other, I was specifically asking about
stabe branch. In master, we would add strict requirements for cmocka
1.0+, convert all tests there and don't run any tests if cmocka 1.0+ is
not found.

In sssd-1-12, we would keep the existing tests untouched and ignore the
deprecation warnings. But what if someone submits a patch that needs to
be included in sssd-1-12, too but adds a test that is written using
cmocka-1.0 API? We could either:
    a) backport the patch without the test
    b) backport the patch as-is, but add the Makefile.am part of the
    patch into a new block that gets executed only if cmocka 1.0 is
    available. Currently we only have a global HAVE_CMOCKA if-endif.

I'm fine with a), do other developers agree?
