I committed a similar patch.  What I do is putting zlibtests.st in 
packages.xml.in like this:

  <package>
    <name>ZLib</name>
    <sunit>ZlibStreamTest.*</sunit>

    <filein>PipeStream.st</filein>
    <filein>zlib.st</filein>
    <filein>zlibtests.st</filein>
    <module>zlib</module>
    <directory>examples</directory>

    <file>PipeStream.st</file>
    <file>zlib.st</file>
    <file>zlibtests.st</file>
  </package>

which also takes care of distributing the file in the .tar.gz.  (It is 
suboptimal to load the tests in the image, but I cannot do this until I 
get round to using Mike's XML parser in the PackageLoader).

Then, thanks to the new testing infrastructure I can simply add

AT_OPTIONAL_PACKAGE_TEST([ZLib])

to testsuite.at.
