Hi!
When I run the testsuite with CC="cl -nologo" in the environment,
make -e in check8.test clobbers the rewritten CC (AM_PROG_CC_C_O
rewrites CC, remember?) causing the test to fail.
I have two alternativ patches for this, one that makes the test
skip in this situation and one that makes it pass. I don't know
which you consider best, so I have included both version...
Any of them ok for maint?
Cheers,
Peter

Subject: [PATCH] tests: skip when "make -e" clobbers the modified $CC
* tests/check8.test: If $CC has been modified, it must have been
AM_PROG_CC_C_O that was responsible, which will cause the test to
fail since it is using subdir-objects. Skip the test instead.

Subject: [PATCH] tests: prevent "make -e" from clobbering the modified $CC
* tests/check8.test: If $CC has been modified, if must have been
AM_PROG_CC_C_O that was responsible, which will cause the test to
fail if "make -e" is left to clobber the modified $CC. So,
adjust $CC to the value desired by AM_PROG_CC_C_O before calling
"make -e".
