    Document INNER_TESTSUITEFLAGS, drop leading space.
    
    * README: Document INNER_TESTSUITEFLAGS.
    * tests/cmdline_wrap.at (Run tests with low max_cmd_len):
    When using INNER_TESTSUITEFLAGS on the testsuite invocation,
    drop leading space after "-k libtool", so that the user may
    further limit the set of tests to be run.

+Some tests, like the one exercising max_cmd_len limits, make use of this
+to invoke the testsuite recursively on a subset of tests.  For these
+tests, the variable INNER_TESTSUITEFLAGS may be used.  It will be
+expanded right after the `-k libtool', without separating whitespace,
+so that further limiting of the recursive set of tests is possible.
+For example, to run only the template tests within the max_cmd_len, use
+  gmake check-local TESTSUITEFLAGS="-v -x -k max_cmd_len \
+                     INNER_TESTSUITEFLAGS=',template -v -x'"
+
 If you wish to report test failures to the libtool list, you need to
 send the file `tests/testsuite.log' to the bug report mailing list,
 <address@hidden>.
