I think that's incorrect. libexecdir is /usr/lib for FHS or /usr/libexec
for BSDish filesystem layouts, but /use should be read-only mountable.

Maybe /var/lib/xfstests as a start?  That seems to be the dumping ground
for random stuff that needs write access.  Even better would be keeping
the scripts under /usr/lib and the output in /var/lib, but that might
be too much work.

This one doesn't actually seem to be used.

Otherwise looks good to me.
