The lenghty remake output was from Solaris, not FreeBSD.
On FreeBSD, "remake check" worked without alarming complaints.

So i redirect your request to Solaris for now.

No. It looks much better.
The remaining warnings come from Solaris changes towards the on
system you developed the tests.

  $ ./configure MAKE=make
  ...
  $ make
  ... _FILE_OFFSET_BITS warnings ...
  $ make check
  ...
  make  check-TESTS
  ... much more info than in my previous runs ...
  ...

> What version of autoconf and automake are you using?

Erm ... none ? At least not on Solaris.
./autogen.sh is run on my GNU/Linux workstation before copying
the git clone to Solaris.

autoconf 2.60, automake 1.9.6. (My machine is old but comfortable.)

On my two year old FreeBSD 8 STABLE the difference is significant.
But i realize that my opinion was premature, as it did not do
the same miracle on Solaris.

Using modern autotools or a release tarball seems to be the
better approach.
Can it be the check in your configure.ac is too lax ?
