From one newbie to another,
Try running the command:
dbus-launch make check
I am not entirely sure what a session bus address is, but dbus-launch
starts a session daemon which will provide the session bus address for
the command.
See the Configuring D-Bus section of the D-Bus page for more info.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the response. I did check to make sure dbus was running and
it was. It then occurred to me that it may need to be run from an X
session. I do have the basic X server running with TWM so I logged on
there and ran the make check and everything was fine. What I don't
understand is why the instruction for this page said I needed a session
address when other packages say explicitly I need to have an X session
in order to run the check. I just finished a number of packages that
said some variant of that. It just so happened that the first in line
used a term I was not familiar with. Thanks again.
