I'm trying to make automate on my MacBook with Darwin 11.4.2. It completed the 
'make' OK, but 'make check' threw a number of failures.

I've attached the test log for your information. 

config.log
Description: Binary data

test-suite.log
Description: Binary data

I'm not sure what the meaning of these failures is. I'm getting similar results 
trying to build lib tool: The 'make' completes, but 'make check' creates 
failures.


============================================================================
Testsuite summary for GNU Automake 1.14

# SKIP:  127

Please report to address@hidden
