Glad to hear this. I was expecting some more trouble :)

Oh, libiconv's test suite is even simpler than that: If a test fails,
"make check" terminates immediately. So, if it passes, all tests passed or
were skipped.

Automake's testsuite output has becomer nicer over time, therefore yes it
would make sense to switch over to Automake (*not* autotest).

Output with Automake 1.11:

PASS: greeting-1
PASS: greeting-2
PASS: hello-1
PASS: last-1
PASS: traditional-1
==================
All 5 tests passed
==================

Output with Automake 1.13:

PASS: greeting-1
PASS: greeting-2
PASS: hello-1
PASS: last-1
PASS: traditional-1
make[4]: Entering directory `/tmp/build/hello-2.9/tests'
make[4]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[4]: Leaving directory `/tmp/build/hello-2.9/tests'
