[PATCH] * tests/defs.in (required=GNUmake): Do not call $MAKE with -v.

[Stepan Kasal]

---
Hi,
  I noticed the following detail.  Since we have to grep the output of
make --version for GNU, we catch SGI make, I suppose.

So I think the special trick for SGI, which was in use before the
commit 693c934 is no longer needed.

If you agree, please commit and push the following patch.

Have a nice day,
        Stepan
