Sure, it's somewhat of a problem.  In Automake, you need to decide if
you want `make check' to run a DejaGnu testsuite or the "simple"
testsuite (see the Automake info pages for details).

One option would be to have `make check' run the DejaGnu tests and
then add a second check-local target that invokes cppunit.  An
alternative approach would be to write a DejaGnu .exp script that
wraps around cppunit so that everything is integrated into the one
test framework.
