AFAIR the only cases we've made work are

(1) disable SIP

(2) avoid the need for (1) by always doing "make install" before
"make check".

Peter E. did some hacking towards another solution awhile ago,
but IIRC it involved changing the built binaries, and I think
we concluded that the benefits didn't justify that.
