Do you have a leftover git-check-ignore or something from a previous
build that is *not* known to "git" you just built?

Neither will help in such a case.  The test pretty much runs with
GIT_EXEC_PATH set to the build area, and we do want to be able to
test what we have in the build area before we decide to install
them, so that is nothing new.
