mlt++ can only build without compiling 'test' files (Makefile patch required)

All,

   The current mlt++ source Makefile requires that the 'test' directory be 
compiles as part of the build. This fails on Arch. I have disabled the build 
of the 'test' dir files with:

  sed -i '/\$(MAKE) -C test \$@/d' Makefile

   Is there any reason they should be built by the current Makefile to begin 
with? Isn't that something that is normally done by the user AFTER the package 
is installed? Since the 'test' Makefile requires -lmlt++ and that lib isn't 
installed until the package is installed - this will cause a build failure 
every time.
