Description

Right now make install is required before make check can be run - that's not good given the number of OSX developers.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on OSX with the current make check workflow, comparing it with make install and the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH behavior. Trace how the build and test commands locate the extension libraries. Done means make check can run without requiring make install on OSX.
