The name was vague on purpose so that this category could include all kinds of tests that have special needs, mostly in terms of special build flags or linking requirements. For example I was thinking that the c89 test we have could be also placed here.
Alternatively, we could just put this in acceptance tests (it is an acceptance test after all), but we need to have a different executable due to the special linking, which is why I have opted to separate it.
