Re: Failure of `make.test'

The extra output [*] is (1) one line per goal sent to stderr, and (2) an
additional "\e[p" sequence to stdout when `-w' is used:

  $ a="`make -w -s -f confmf | grep -v 'ing directory'`"
  building am__doit
  $ echo "\`$a'"
  `done
  '
(1) doesn't hurt here, but (2) causes the test to fail.

I'm not sure whether we want the test to work around this.

Thanks,
Ludovic.
