bug#14337: Nothing to be done for `base.log'.

[Bruce Korb]

It's taken me a few hours to unwind all this stuff, but the bottom line
seems to be that "make check" doesn't think it needs to do anything to
make the test log file.

Googling for:  "making test-suite.log: failed to create" log "nothing to be done 
for"
did not yield any useful hints.

Help, please?
