gniibe claimed T4243: Test failure in libgcrypt-1.8.4.

T4298: 'make check' with uninstalled library, which is building now (even if rpath doesn't work well) handles related issue, which was fixed for libgcrypt-1.9. Since this issue is for other libraries (libgpg-error, specifically), we could do something similar, but, it may be detecting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to fail with "Please remove LD_LIBRARY_PATH".

yes. that's why i wrote it in '['-brackets.

I think that it's not self-evident, that "you can either give a file or let the tool read from stdin or output to stdout" and therefore should be written explicitly.
