Yeah, that's why conflnk3.test starts with 

  set -e
  # Skip platforms where `test -e' does not work.  (Note that Changing
  # all `test -e' into `test -h' will not work when AC_CONFIG_LINKS
  # copies or hardlinks files.)
  test -e configure.in || exit 77

Why doesn't it exit 77?

Would `(test -e configure.in) || exit 77' work better?
Would moving the `set -e' after that command help?

Could you run it with VERBOSE=x (not t)?
