That was not even a proposal.  The part that deals with valgrind is
blatantly wrong (it shouldn't create symlinks in that code, it only
should figure out where things should be).

Use of FindBin to find the location of the script is OK, but does
using "../../perl" really work?

We have this

  GITPERLLIB="$GIT_BUILD_DIR"/perl/blib/lib:"$GIT_BUILD_DIR"/perl/blib/arch/auto/Git

to look for two places in test-lib.sh
