I have checked in a fix to this problem; the multi-parser-run test is
now succeeding.

I don't want 'make' in the testbed/ directory to fail, even if one or
more tests fail.  Testing should go on (even across several directories,
although in this case we only have one) and not be interrupted by the
failure of one test.

But in the flexml/ directory you could have dist depend on test like
this:

 dist:	test clean

then cause the test target to fail if any of the tests fail:

 test::;  make -C examples $@; \
	make -C testbed $@ > test.out 2>&1; ! grep '^fail' test.out && \
	echo "Tests succeeded."

You can make those changes if you think it's OK.  Also you might
integrate the results of the 'make' run in examples/ into this target.
