On a related note, this new test also fails when it is invoked as a
libtool wrapper script, because of the "lt-" prefix.

$ ./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir t --libtool getprogname
$ cd t && ./configure
$ sed -i 's/^noinst_LTLIBRARIES +=/lib_LTLIBRARIES =/' gllib/Makefile.am
$ make && make check

FAIL: test-getprogname
======================

lt-test-getprogname: test-getprogname.c:29: main: Assertion `STREQ (p, 
"test-getprogname" EXEEXT)' failed.
FAIL test-getprogname (exit status: 134)

Sorry for not providing a patch.  I have no idea how to conditionalize
this in the test program itself.
