In tests/Makefile.am, there is

XFAIL_TESTS =                                   \
all.test                                        \
auxdir2.test                                    \
cond17.test                                     \
txinfo5.test

and I am getting confused by:

GNU Make 3.81

env VERBOSE=x TESTS='all.test auxdir2.test cond17.test txinfo5.test' gmake -e 
check
                                                                     ^^^^^

=====================================
4 of 4 tests failed
Please report to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
=====================================

as opposed to

BSD make in NetBSD-current/i386

env VERBOSE=x TESTS='all.test auxdir2.test cond17.test txinfo5.test' make -e 
check
                                                                     ^^^^

=====================================================
All 4 tests behaved as expected (4 expected failures)
=====================================================

?! Bug in gmake?

Cheers,

Patrick
