Hi,

building coreutils 8.12 on a Linux 2.6.25.20, glibc 2.8 machine, "make check"
shows this line:

  SKIP: misc/tty-eof

But unlike for the other tests that are skipped, there is no explanation why
it was skipped. I have to look into the misc/tty-eof.log file, there I find:
  tty-eof: this script requires Perl's Expect package >=1.11

Could the explanation be repeated in stdout or stderr, like for the other
tests when they are skipped?
