I was able to reproduce this bug on my machine (Fedora 25) with the
minor development branch (v1.15.0a).  The FAILING tests are related to
the presence of DejaGNU on the system.  Unfortunately I have never used
it so it won't be easy for me to debug.  Hopefully somebody more
knowledgable, will be able to investigate.

If you are only using Automake without DejaGNU, you can safely ignore
those failures.

Thanks for your report.
