Hm, could you not install the test data to /usr/systemd/private/path/
whatever and then make the tests default to this, overiddable by the
said env var? That would avoid the ugly requirement to set it manually
at the very least.

Alas not, and moreover we deliberately and by policy have no concept
of "partial" reproducibility or anything that requires a tool (beyond
cmp or sha1sum, etc).
