Hi Somchai,

These test were passing for me, but when I took a closer look at the
test scripts, I found the problem.  The following patch should fix
things for you (and will be in the next release of e2fsprogs).

    tests: use mke2fs and debugfs from the build tree
    
    The tests f_bigalloc_badinode and f_bigalloc_orphan_list were not
    using the version of mke2fs and debugfs from the build tree, and if
    mke2fs and debugfs are not in the user's PATH, these tests would fail.
    Fix this.
