+Remove Makefile dependencies for test targets
+
+These are probably here because the executables aren't always built for
+other platforms (e.g. Windows); however we can safely assume they'll
+always be there. None of the other test targets have such dependencies
+and if we don't remove them, make tries to rebuild the executables and
+fails during run-ptest.
