Why are there now numerous test files in the etc.tgz tarball?

Looking, I see
/usr/libdata/debug/usr/tests/...
/usr/tests/...
/var/db/obsolete/tests/...

Shouldn't these be in tests.tgz ?
Or what is the point of tests.tgz ?
Which release?  On recent -7 and -current builds from source, tests are
in tests.tgz and not in etc.tgz.  Are you using non-default options?
Did a straight build.sh build distribution sets from current yesterday. 
The only option was that I did a cross compile for vax, so the full 
command line was:
"./build.sh -m vax build distribution sets >& m.log &", and that is what 
I ended up with.
Installed those sets on a VAX today (well, not etc.tgz actually), and 
ran etcupdate, which also started wanting to create all these test 
directories, which is when I noted this. Went back and checked etc.tgz, 
and the files were in there too, which is when I wrote the mail.
