This is still a problem even with llama-7025...

The failure is due to the models/ subdirectory, where the test-chat attempts to find files, does not exist in the CMake-created .build/ subdirectory, where the tests are invoked.

The work-around is to create a symlink: ln -sf ../llama.cpp-b7025/models .
