--- Comment #3 from Behdad Esfahbod <freedesktop at behdad.org> ---
Ok, I see these are supposed to already be supported in 1.11.3 at least.

I like to take this opportunity to say that 1.13 simply broke backward
compatibility.  This is from the manual of 1.11.3:

"   The variable `TESTS_ENVIRONMENT' can be used to set environment
variables for the test run; the environment variable `srcdir' is set in
the rule.  If all your test programs are scripts, you can also set
`TESTS_ENVIRONMENT' to an invocation of the shell (e.g.  `$(SHELL) -x'
can be useful for debugging the tests), or any other interpreter.  For
instance, the following setup may be used to run tests with Perl:

     TESTS_ENVIRONMENT = $(PERL) -Mstrict -w
     TESTS = foo.pl bar.pl baz.pl
"

Do we know which version were the new facilities introduced in?  In many of my
modules I don't want to upgrade from 1.11.1 requirement.
