Sorry, that appears to have been a miscount on my part:
I was counting some files that Automake generates for itself
while building.  In Automake source there are only two instances,
which your patch caught: the 'recheck recheck-html' rule and
the 'check-TESTS' rule (the latter is what actually triggered
the problem with coreutils).  So this should be OK.

Thanks for the quick fixes, by the way!
