 I've really put my foot in my mouth here, sorry. I was misled and confused
by the superficial similarity between the definitions of variables
containing _object_ files in objects.make and the variables containing
_source_ files in Makefile.am. And while the latter indeed suffers from the
problem above, this is not at all the case for objects.make, which builds
these objects just once and then reuses them in all the tests.

 Please disregard the original message and very sorry once again for the
confusion. I would still like to submit a patch with some changes required
to fix the problem with autotools-based makefiles, but I wanted to already
reply to this message to try to avoid (hopefully not too late) that you
waste your time trying to understand what did I write, because it was just
completely wrong.

 Sorry again,
VZ
