----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Things like 'VERSION_package' may not only be wrong, but may cause compile
 errors if the library doesn't include the package in question (but the
 test does).

 This is likely to come up in a MIN_VERSION_criterion or MIN_VERSION_HUnit
 case.

 This might only be a problem if the test executable is using the new
 "build against a compiled version of the library" technique - I haven't
 played around too much.
