In that case, would it make sense to put up a separate tools/testing
patch and leave samples where they lie? (I'd _love_ to keep this patch
series from acquiring another 1000 lines, but either way works :)

My current tester and harness lives here:
  https://github.com/redpig/seccomp/blob/master/tests/
and the licensing can be sorted out prior to a patch mail.

thanks!
