The 'make install' output looks fine to me.

The testsuite.log shows a few failures.  These all look more or less
like this example:

The failing check compares (with diff -u) two directory listings.
What confuses me is that one of the listings apparently shows the
"testsuite.log" file twice.  Which file system was this run on?

Thanks,
