How exactly do you want to expose $sysroot to your testsuite? I once had to teach automake to recognize RUNTESTSRCDIR so that my non-recursive makefile would do the right thing on "make check". Grep the web for RUNTESTSRCDIR if that sounds like something useful to you. How about this (I'm guessing about what you need...): $ cat >tests/lib/sysroot.exp.in <<EOF set sysroot "@SYSROOT@" EOF then add AC_SUBST(SYSROOT, $sysroot) to configure.ac, and add tests/lib/sysroot.exp to AC_CONFIG_FILES. Each of your test scripts (tests/$tool/*.exp) will also have to do "load_lib sysroot.exp" to pick up the definition of the Tcl variable $sysroot.
