I'm Cc'ing Szabolcs Nagy on this since he's the maintainer of
libc-test. I don't yet have a good feel for what sorts of tests you
want to do in this project, so it's hard for me to give specific
input, but from a standpoint of sharing tests, the most important
thing is not having the tests or test-harness be libc-specific.
libc-test does a really good job of this. Here's the repo for
reference in case you don't have it:
