In the past I found a subdirectory of the source tree named "test"
interfered with the proper working of the test target on Linux.  So at
least in that context "test" was a reserved name for directories.  Of
course, that context is quite different than yours so it is a long
shot, but what happens if you use a different name than test for that
source directory?
