Turns out that it was me that lied.  =)O|

In demo/Makefile.am, we have:

# This is one of the essential tests for deplibs_check_method=pass_all.
# If this one passes with pass_all, it is likely that pass_all works
EXTRA_LIBRARIES = libhell0.a
libhell0_a_SOURCES = hello.c foo.c
EXTRA_LTLIBRARIES = libhell1.la libhell2.la
libhell1_la_SOURCES = hell1.c
libhell1_la_LIBADD = -L. -lhell0
libhell1_la_LDFLAGS = -rpath $(libdir)
libhell1_la_DEPENDENCIES = libhell0.a
libhell2_la_SOURCES = hell2.c
libhell2_la_LIBADD = -L. -lhell0
libhell2_la_LDFLAGS = -rpath $(libdir)
libhell2_la_DEPENDENCIES = libhell0.a

So, it does seem fair that a full test suite pass when deplibs_check_method 
is set to pass_all (provided that you don't have to ./configure 
--disable-shared or something), is probably a good indication that pass_all 
is good on that host after all.

Cheers,
        Gary.
