Indeed, after a bit further investigation I think the tests may just be
hard-coding expectations that don't account for VPATH builds, i.e. the
test is looking for

  data/emacs-module/mod-test.so

but when you're building after a "../configure ..." in a subdir, the
actual value will be more like:

  ../test/data/emacs-module/mod-test.so

I'm wondering if some of the other 27.1 tests failures I'm seeing might
also be VPATH related.  Are VPATH builds regularly tested?

Thanks
