Yay, that is a neat workaround which I hadn't seen before.

However, this requires me to create a custom input for each package (and 
potentially each version). That is a maintenance burden similar to patching 
every package.

In contrast, updating check.am to split check into build/run is forward and 
backward compatible and doesn't have to be adapted to changes in the test 
suites.

Is there a downside I'm not seeing?
