Yes they are, and I tried to push my changes upstream well before we
merged the new test suite into our master branch.  Sadly, my efforts
were not successful.  You can find the details in TinySCHEMEs mailing
list archive.

I consider bundling of gpgscm no worse than bundling scdaemon, or say
gpgtar.  The plan is to let it mature within the GnuPG repository, and
once we are confident that it fits all our needs, we will move it to
libgpg-error, and use it for other test suites too.

There is gnupg-devel, see
