[PATCH] tests: testsuite is now safe to run with dmake in parallel mode

2011-11-08 Thread Stefano Lattarini
* tests/defs.in: Unset variables DMAKE_CHILD, DMAKE_DEF_PRINTED and DMAKE_MAX_JOBS, which are exported by Solaris dmake when run in parallel mode, and which might confuse make processes spawned by our testsuite. --- ChangeLog |8 tests/defs.in |8 +--- 2 files changed, 13

[FYI] {maint} tests: fix spurious failures w.r.t. parallel make and colorization

2011-11-08 Thread Stefano Lattarini
* tests/color2.test: Skip the test if the $MAKE program fails to consider the standard output as a tty when spawned by `expect'. This is required for make implementations, like FreeBSD make and Solaris dmake, that redirect the output of recipes to temporary files or pipes when run in parallel mode.
