(latest from git/master)
I just ran the test suite using the latest and now we're down to 5 failures!

Started looking, and this one may be easy to fix:

  make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/h/j/w/co/automake/tests/depmod.dir/tru64-long.d/src'
  make[1]: Entering directory `/h/j/w/co/automake/tests/depmod.dir/tru64-long.d'

Once you see the contents of the offending foo.Po file:
(the "\:" on line 3 is the obvious culprit)

  $ cat tests/depmod.dir/tru64-long.d/src/.deps/foo.Po
  foo.o: ../../this-is/a-path/which-have/quite-a/long_long_name/src/foo.c \
   ../../this-is/a-path/which-have/quite-a/long_long_name/src/foo.h
  ../../this-is/a-path/which-have/quite-a/long_long_name/src/foo.c \:
   ../../this-is/a-path/which-have/quite-a/long_long_name/src/foo.h:

tap 84 fails for the same reason.
