According to 'selftest/wscript' developer already implies selftest, so
maybe we just need to change DEVELOPER to ENABLE_SELFTEST whenever it
is required for running the tests?

I pushed a branch on gitlab for testing, with configure changed to
only --enable-selftest (I left only ad-dc running, the one I changed),
let's see how it goes:
