Automake 1.12 "make check" reported only one FAIL, which i traced to a strange value for var 'd' in t/remake11.sh, leaking in from the environment. You can probably guess its value from this test-suite.log excerpt:
test-suite.log-EXCERPT
Description: Binary data
Anyway, here's the trivial patch:

echo "SUBDIRS = sub$i" > Makefile.am
and a suitable ChangeLog entry:
tests: unset local var to prevent env influence
* t/remake11.sh: Unset 'd' before first use.
Probably the entire suite should be audited for this class of bug.
Anyway, now i can happily move on to "make install"...
