make check fails if configured with --program-prefix |

$ ./configure --program-prefix=g
$ make
$ make check
then two tests diff3 and help-version fail.
The reason is quite simple; the log contains lines like
+diff3: subsidiary program 'gdiff' not found
If I run
$ cd src
$ ln -s diff gdiff
then 'make check' succeeds.
If there were a program named 'gdiff' in my PATH then it would
have been used for the test.

Thank you both for confirming.
I too have confirmed that in a clean clone, there's no problem.
I'm closing this bug by changing my reply-all recipient address
48062@debbugs.gnu.org to 48062-done@debbugs.gnu.org
