The 'make check' is picking up my locally built X binary which I never
use and is in an unknown state. The log in /tmp shows it fails as it
cannot find a driver. This is expected in my situation.

I tried the "source" branch of
git://people.freedesktop.org/~cndougla/xorg-gtest
<git://people.freedesktop.org/%7Ecndougla/xorg-gtest> without any
patches, but I get a compile error:
xorg-gtest-example.cpp:1:29: fatal error: xorg/gtest/test.h: No such
file or directory

It looks like everything has been explained.
