bug#13587: backward-compatible way of declaring serial tests?

2013-01-30 Thread Andy Wingo
Hi, Guile has one meta-test runner that prints things on stdout as it goes. It works well with serial-tests but parallel-tests hides the output, which is not so nice. Anyway we have added serial-tests to the options; fine. However this prevents Guile from autoreconfing with automake 1.11 (option

Hey folks, Development Guile support compilation of Scheme files, finally. But the deal is that it will load the source file instead if the mtimes on the Scheme and compiled files differ. Where automake comes in is that installing a file touches its mtime, always, not preserving the mtime of the
