I am doing what you suggest: tap is in external/tap-1.01.
You can tell ./configure to run ./configure in this directory.
However, I can't hook this generally because it would also install tap
on a system, when we only want it for testing purposes.
Anyway, I think it works correctly now. If I take a locally created
distribution on a host without libtap, and run ./configure --enable-
libtap, it will run the tests correctly.
Let me know if I've missed anything. In a few days, I'll switch the
tinderbox builds to include --enable-libtap so that we get more
coverage from the tap tests.
