I would rather ask Federico who wrote ‘emacs-build-system’ :)

Yeah, maybe ‘emacs-build-system’ could benefit from using EMACSLOADPATH,
I don't know, someone should probably give it a try ;-)

BTW, Oleg, did you try to use 'ert-runner' instead of running emacs for
tests manually?  Perhaps, it will work; look at commit
8505d34829b99744a36d72dd583768f1e49210a6 for example.
