The issue you have encountered is just a testsuite weakness; nothing you
should really worry about, since it is not a symptom of any real automake
bug.

Still, I'm not closing this bug report yet, since work is underway to improve
the automake testsuite, and your report highlight some weaknesses that we
might finally get to fix before the next major release.  Keeping this ticket
open will be a good reminder.

Thanks,
  Stefano
