FWIW, libopenbeos.so links against libbe.so as well - we would need to
change that as well...

AFAIK only the BApplication and ViewInterface stuff relies on the test
platform. Any other things?
How hard would it be to put them into an add-on?
For a start, a shared library could help as well, BTW, and would be
much simpler to do, although it wouldn't guarantee us that we're free
of host dependencies.
