Just a side note: there is only one LTP installation: make install :).
Your example is compilation and running test *without* installation.

The fact we require installation suggest runltp (still not replaced LTP runner):
$ ./runltp
FATAL: LTP not installed correctly
INFO:  Follow directions in INSTALL!

I usually do installation, also because I test patches on various VMs.

Kind regards,
Petr
