Event Timeline
It is generated by make check and it's an helper file that contains the extension to be used for binaries aiding the execution of the unit tests. When you run on Linux it's content is something like:
#!/usr/bin/python exeext=""
whereas when you're cross compiling for win32/64:
#!/usr/bin/python exeext="exe"
I've never seen this file. My build generates test/config.ini which is read by the test harness. I'm fairly sure this is legacy -- we backported a commit a long time ago related to this.
src/test/buildenv.py has been generated by an old in-tree build from late 2017, it is not used anymore. sorry for the noise.
