Yes, sure.  This is one option for output, I agree.  I think there ought to
be a newline after all the dots, that's all.  As it stands now, if all the
tests succeed, no further output is produced.

I also think that some folks (well, me anyway) may want a more verbose
output style.  I'm not suggesting that the default change.  Just that one
has an option.  I'll have a look and suggest a patch, maybe sometime this
week.

Nope.  The Makefile.am files are the master record of the files required to
build the project.  They must be manually edited for all changes.
