configure is already big enough, I'd prefer not to add new things unless they are needed. This is not likely to be something the user wants to change, and (as you note below) it's pretty easy for the the Makefile or tests to guess. > You could use `$(which true)` in test/Makefile.local, but I felt the > code repetition there was unecessary since you could just create a > TRUE variable in the configure script. well, it's not really code repetition because it is only used in that one place. > An alternative is to change the tests so that the location of true > (and false) is no longer an issue. Sure, that would be fine too. d
