What are the tests in test/lisp/legacy/?

What are the tests in test/lisp/legacy/?

Does anyone know what are those tests and why are they in the
directory by that name?  Why not in the places they belong to?

TIA

That was me. It's even documented in test/file-organisation.org.

When I moved the test files to reflect their source, some could not be
done cleanly and need splitting up. It seemed a mistake to do this at
the same time as move the bulk of the files, so they went where they
are.

Migrating things out of there would be a good thing.

Okay. I guess, I should build a dependency mechanism between the C files
and the tests as there is for the lisp files. At the moment, changing
undo.c will not force the tests in test/src/undo-tests.el to rerun.
