For this, you'd need to change all Makefile.ams and it isn't working recursively... What is with having AC_SUBST(TESTS) in configure.in and running: $ make check TESTS= to skip test execution? > Additionally, if I want to build a particular check program (perhaps as I'm > working out the compiler errors, but before I'm ready to actually run the > tests), I just type "make <check-program-name>" from that directory. You just have to remember to add `.exe' on cygwin and MSYS, especially within scripts / make rules ($(EXEEXT)), otherwise (at least GNU-) make uses a default built-in rule to compile and link <check-program-name>, typically with different LIBS. The compiler command line looks plausible but fails and confuses people :-) oki, Steffen
