The fact that Automake infers some source file names from
check_PROGRAMS = test-foo
is really nice. Nevertheless, it is nice to people who program in C,
and less to other languages. Couldn't we look for test-foo.EXT with
EXT ranging a well defined series instead of the hard coded `c'?
I know it's a bit of magic, and it could be compared to globbing
support. I find it weaker though, so more admissible. An alternative
would be a DEFAULT_EXTENSION variable, that's more controlled.
