Due to the size and difference in test content/coverage, I pulled lib/libc and lib/msun from bother sources and integrated them into Kyua. What I did was I put the netbsd testcases into the tests/ subdirectory and put the FreeBSD test suites into a tests/legacy subdirectory. The goal was that the legacy directory would eventually be converted over to atf testcases and then could be removed once the conversion was complete. >> I'm not sure if this scheme makes sense though.

I moved the files over into their respective locations to avoid having to change build machinery at the top level, but you bring up a valid concern. These pieces are the exception, not the norm, so would it make more sense to leave them be, hook the directories into the build somehow, then move them over to their respective spots once they’ve been converted over? I was trying to keep things relatively pristine when dealing with the NetBSD testcases as well so it would be clearer which was “our’s” and what was “their’s”, mostly because the code isn’t checked into a vendor tree as I don’t have a commit bit and no one else with a commit bit has done it yet. Thanks! -Garrett
