Quite hard to do... It is automake that prints the PASS/FAIL message,
and it will only print the test name :-(
I could do it before automake prints the result, and, say, only if you
set VERBOSE. Is that enough?
BTW, there are some tests that keep running forever, particularly on
IRIX 6.3 and Solaris 2.5. On Solaris 2.5 (but not 2.6), for example,
So*.java will only stop if I kill them. I'll investigate.
I was planning on adding daemon threads to these tests that would
time-out after, say, 1 minute. Does this sound reasonable?
