OK, cool.

default-goal-set-first.mk already exists in tests/ at 108 bytes (it's
zero-sized in build/pymake/tests)
foreach-local-variable.mk matches exactly what's in mozilla-central's tests/

I'll post a PR to clean that up.

Thanks for digging up the history, I never got around to
cross-referencing the two repo histories.

It's hard for me to say what's broken, it appears to test that a
target without a recipe evaluates correctly, but it looks weird
overall, see my other thread on it:

OK, makes sense. I'll leave that to you grown-ups :-)
