It would make sense to have this info in the generated test-suite.log, because people who report test failures frequently send this file as part of their bug report. Other than that, e.g. for "make [all]" and "make install", this added info is useless. So, I think your suggestion should be implemented in Automake's test suite drivers, not in maint.mk. Bruno
