Something else that I find troublesome is that the test plan is only
focused on the change being introduced in this SRU, namely, the new
build flags. And in a passive way: just check if the resulting binary
has some attribute, and if the build logs have a certain flag.

This is missing an actual check to see if xfsprogs is still working
correctly. There are no DEP8 tests to at least perform a simple smoke
test. I think this needs improving.

We should at the very least test basic functionality, like creating and
checking filesystems, resize (grow), etc. It would be very bad if this
update triggered an assertion error in one of these functions due to the
new FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 flag, for example.
