Did you mean "insensitive" here, right?

Thanks for confirming. I've thus pushed the patch.

Note that your setup wasn't truly broken -- the automake testsuite should
ideally be able to deal with exported MAKEINFO and HELP2MAN transparently.

This is probably due to HomeBrew setting up the srcdir and builddir in a
way unexpected to get-sysconf.test. Do you happen to know how one can
reliably determine whether the build system is being run by HomeBrew, so
that the failing part of the test can be skipped instead of poisoning
the whole testsuite result?
Thanks,
