 Indeed, MESSAGE is not really the right place for that note; also,
 pkgsrc isn't really meant to support going and running things by hand
 inside the work directory. (Sometimes correct behavior depends on
 settings passed through from the package makefile.)
 
 Maybe the right way to approach this is to add rules to the pkgsrc
 makefile for running the tests from there? The substitution could be
 automated then.
