Hi Peter,

this really looks good. I'll see if I can add a bit to it. There's one 
thing I think could be improved, maybe some autokung-foo master has a 
good idea how.

For each test you need to declare overwritten methods like :

protocol_xiselectevents_CFLAGS=$(AM_CFLAGS) -Wl,-wrap,dixLookupWindow 
-Wl,-wrap,XISetEventMask

It would be cooler if that was less verbose, like:

protocol_xiselectevents_overrides=(dixLookupWindow, XISetEventMask)

and CFLAGS would be made up by macro magic.
