I must confess I have never used the 'check-TESTS' target myself. In
fact Automake current manual doesn't even mention it. So it is not
clear to me how it is expected to work, and what its role compare to the
'check' and 'recheck' target. Since you seems to use it, maybe you can
give me more background on that target?
Thanks for your patch.
