Yes, I have fixed the test case now.  Sorry, I broke "make check" which is
supposed to test all the modules (it didn't test modules without a .c file).

Thanks for the report!

Yes.  We should document that far better.  There is a tool (called ccanlint)
which is slowly developing to help people write _info.c and test cases.

I have documented this now on the wiki, and put in a reference on the upload
page.

Hope that helps!
