Yes.  And in fact it would be even better if the test suite always 
produced/retained "verbose" output for failed tests so that the 
information is always immediately available on demand.  The fact that 
it does not should be considered to be a bug.

I am thinking that the many test failures under Debian Linux are due 
to it using older tool versions such as Autoconf 2.61.
