I'm not sure I understand. The code in question uses something like
See $(subdir)/$(TEST_SUITE_LOG).
which should expand to the full relative patch of the log file, starting
from the top builddir in a package.
Is $(subdir) wrong in your Makefile, or are you using a package
hierarchy with sub-configure scripts? In the latter case, autotools so
far never produce relative paths wrt. the topmost package.
Thanks,
Ralf
