This is not working for me.  It seems like there is a missing 
dependency or logical race-condition somewhere.  I added this to try 
to force the utilities/tests/montage.sh tests to run after a set of 
other tests:

utilities/tests/montage.sh.log : \
        utilities/tests/addnoise.sh.log \
        utilities/tests/affine.sh.log \
        utilities/tests/annotate.sh.log \
        ...

% gmake check
.
.
.
/bin/bash: line 4: utilities/tests/montage.sh.log: No such file or directory
/bin/bash: line 52: utilities/tests/montage.sh.log: No such file or directory
=====================
1 of 773 tests failed
See ./test-suite.log
=====================

% gmake utilities/tests/montage.sh.log
gmake: Nothing to be done for `utilities/tests/montage.sh.log'.
% ls -l utilities/tests/montage.sh.log
utilities/tests/montage.sh.log: No such file or directory

Ideas?
