This is finally fixed in r19819:
  https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gar/changeset/19819

After all the solution was quite easy, but I didn't see it before: just put
the filename statically in the gspec describing the build to mkpackage.
The filename from there is also taken for checkpkg, so it should work
without problems now.

I always pumped up my head on how to pass environment variables between
subinvocations, which is indeed not trivial.

Just let me know how it goes.


Best regards
