I mentioned old version of `CLIENT_ONLY` build because I consider it
as a referential implementation. And `ipa tests` were not installed in 4.4
for client only build.

I expected a little bit more details.

Do you need to run `make install` and then run tests in installed directory?
Or how do you want to "run part of the test suite".

Because if you needn't run "make install" for your use-case then
my proposed patch would work.

BTW `ipatests` will still be part of tarball and/or git. You can run them
even thought they will not be installed with `make install`
