I needed to add another phase to run 'tests/gen_tests.sh', and with that
addition, strace-5.2 now successfully passes all tests on my system.

I went ahead and pushed the resulting fix to the 'master' branch as
commit 2426e2c94cdf9fcf28bba28b1e84b1aa5f652332.

Thanks very much for your quick response to this issue.

     Best,
      Mark
