Note that we already require 1.11 or higher for parallel-tests. I wouldn't mind if we also just added AM_SILENT_RULES([yes]) by default. > , but starting from automake 1.13 > silent rules are always generated, defaulting to verbose. $(AM_V_foo) > additions should be no-ops on systems that don't support silent rules. I like this patch. Just one question, what defines the $(AM_V_foo) (specifically AM_V_CC and AM_V_CCLD) variables? I only see AM_V_at and AM_V_GEN described in the automake manual. Are they officially OK to use? OK to push if they are. Otherwise I think we should define them (or some renamed version ourselves based on the official AM_V_GEN macro). Thanks, Mark
