This is what I finally settled on, based on your answers, and a little
digging...
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
check_SCRIPTS = greptest.sh
TESTS = $(check_SCRIPTS)
greptest.sh:
echo 'myprog | grep "myprog text"' > greptest.sh
chmod +x greptest.sh
CLEANFILES = greptest.sh

...which isn't too bad. :) I don't know why the chmod command didn't
work the first time around. It seems that often when something like this
doesn't work and you give up on it, then later you start thinking about
it and gain a bit more "faith" in your original idea--you try it again,
and presto! it works. Clearly, I had some syntax wrong the first time
that slipped past me.

Oh, this explains why Autotools uses install-sh, rather than install.sh.
Thanks,
