check.am wasn't in the patch.  However, I trust it is just an
extraction from handle_tests.

Please add a ChangeLog entry for handle_tests.  Also, the ChangeLog
entry shouldn't repeat `automake.in':

        * automake.in (handle_phony): Sort.
        (file_contents_with_transform): Catch `.PHONY:'.
        * check.am: New file.

(This is an absurdly nitty nit.)

Finally, could you move the `Solaris 2.7' comment from handle_tests
into check.am and make it into a `##' comment?  In fact, move it to
just above the line it comments.


It is fine to `cvs add' a file so that `cvs diff -N' creates the
correct diff.  This applies generally -- if you don't have cvs write
access there is a script you can get that will do a phony `cvs add' by
manipulating CVS/Entries.
