Details:

I'd like to be able to show the output of test failures on standard output,
but without the full contents of the fntests.log file, only the actual failed
tests. Talked on irc a week ago or so and the best solution we came up with
was to filter fntests.log after the full test run completes. And jwe suggested
we could hook it into the make rules so it runs automatically, but only when
the user is building verbosely (either with "--disable-silent-rules" or with
"make check V=1").

I have an awk script written that does the filtering job, now I just need some
help or inspiration about how to hook it into the makefile.

Patch in progress attached.
