Thanks for the report. This patch should fix it.


2017-04-20  Bruno Haible  <address@hidden>

        verify tests: Fix spurious failure with parallel make.
        * gnulib-tool (func_emit_tests_Makefile_am): Emit initialization of
        EXTRA_PROGRAMS.
        * tests/test-verify.sh: Build test-verify-try.o, not test-verify.o.
        * tests/test-verify-try.c: New file.
        * modules/verify-tests (Files): Add it.
        (EXTRA_PROGRAMS): Add test-verify-try.
        (MOSTLYCLEANFILES): Update accordingly.
        Reported by Adam James Stewart <address@hidden>.
