+       tests: avoid a spurious failure of 'ltinit.test' MinGW
+       * tests/ltinit.test: Be laxer in grepping configure output, to
+       avoid spurious failures on systems which lack POSIX dynamic
+       linking (e.g., MinGW), or when cross-compiling for such systems.
+       See also commit `v1.11-855-ge9e5d4a'.
+       Report and suggestion from Peter Rosin.

+       tests: testsuite is now safe to run with dmake in parallel mode
+       * tests/defs.in: Unset variables DMAKE_CHILD, DMAKE_DEF_PRINTED
+       and DMAKE_MAX_JOBS, which are exported by Solaris dmake when run
+       in parallel mode, and which might confuse make processes spawned
+       by our testsuite.

+
+       tests: fix spurious failures w.r.t. parallel make and colorization
+       * tests/color2.test: Skip the test if the $MAKE program fails to
+       consider the standard output as a tty when spawned by `expect'.
+       This is required for make implementations, like FreeBSD make and
+       Solaris dmake, that redirect the output of recipes to temporary
+       files or pipes when run in parallel mode.  Since we are at it,
+       simplify the detection of a working `expect' program, and throw
+       in other minor simplifications.

+
+       tests: fix spurious failure in 'distcheck-override-infodir.test'
+       * tests/distcheck-override-infodir.test ($required): Add
+       'install-info'.

+
+       tests: avoid another failure of 'uninstall-fail.test' on Solaris
+       * tests/uninstall-fail.test: On Solaris 10, if `/bin/rm' is run
+       with the `-f' option, it doesn't print any error message when
+       failing to remove a file (due to e.g., "Permission denied").
+       Yikes.  Cater to this incompatibility, by relaxing the test when
+       a faulty `rm' is detected.

        tests: various minor tweakings, mostly related to AM_PROG_AR
        * tests/alloca2.test: Ensure we don't experience a spurious failure
        due to a missing `AM_PROG_AR' macro or a missing `ar-lib' auxiliary
