Description of problem:
There's possible root of fails in test script 'tests/test_driver.pl' from built-
in test suite. This script doesn't take in account environment 
variable 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH'. Script just clears this variable. It may affect 
behaviour of tests when 'make' is being built with compilers other than GNU GCC 
(I used Intel C++ compiler) because set of libraries used by another compilers 
may differ from that one used in GCC. In this example 'make' can't find 
necessary C-runtime library libcxa.so (It's used by Intel C++ compiler). May be 
it will be better to save value of this variable ? I tried to do this, it 
helps. I've attached patch 'test_driver.pl.patch'

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. build 'make' with compiler other than GNU GCC (I used Intel C++ compiler)
2. start built-in tests with 'make check'

	

Actual Results:  built 'make' can't find some standard libraries which comes 
with the compiler (Intel C++ compiler). Tests don't run correctly. It implies a 
lot of fails (64).

Expected Results:  Tests should run correctly.

You should install the compiler properly if you plan to use it.
(like put it into /etc/ld.so.conf or put the library into /usr/lib).
