&lt;p&gt;I agree with Corion here: I distribute MANIFEST.SKIP and think it's ok to distribute the &lt;c&gt;/xt&lt;/c&gt; directory (or author-only tests).  It just assures that if someone else wants to work on the module too, they've got everything that I would use if it were me working on it.  It's easy enough to ensure that those ./xt tests only run if an environment variable is set, so at worst they're a little extra disk space, and at best they might help another contributor, bug-fixer, etc.&lt;/p&gt;
