automake.test failure

[Patrick Welche]

With today's CVS autoconf and automake, automake.test fails at

AUTOMAKE_fails ''
grep 'empty argument' stderr

with
...
+ AUTOMAKE_fails 
+ AUTOMAKE_run 1 
+ expected_exitcode=1
+ shift
+ exitcode=0
+ automake-1.9a --foreign -Werror -Wall 
+ exitcode=1
+ cat stderr
configure.in: no proper invocation of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE was found.
configure.in: You should verify that configure.in invokes AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE,
configure.in: that aclocal.m4 is present in the top-level directory,
configure.in: and that aclocal.m4 was recently regenerated (using aclocal).
automake: no `Makefile.am' found for any configure output
+ cat stdout
+ test 1 = 1
+ grep empty argument stderr
FAIL: automake.test

Isn't that the right error message? So maybe the grep should be changed?

Cheers,
