Description

This is similar to #1347, but the failure occurs during the linking tests due to the use of an absolute path to libchicken.a. When running "make check" without a "make install", that file doesn't exist:

 /home/evhan/src/chicken/chicken-core-chicken-5/tests/../chicken 'linking-tests.scm' -output-file 'linking-tests.c' -static -verbose -include-path /home/evhan/src/chicken/chicken-core-chicken-5/tests/.. -uses reverser -emit-link-file linking-tests.link
