For this, you'd need to change all Makefile.ams and it isn't working
recursively...

What is with having

  AC_SUBST(TESTS)

in configure.in and running:

  $ make check TESTS=

to skip test execution?

You just have to remember to add `.exe' on cygwin and MSYS,
especially within scripts / make rules ($(EXEEXT)),
otherwise (at least GNU-) make uses a default built-in rule
to compile and link <check-program-name>, typically with
different LIBS. The compiler command line looks plausible but
fails and confuses people :-)
