FYI: 50-gary-report-test-config.patch

[Gary V. Vaughan]

Applied to HEAD.

Chuck, if you still have indeterminacy problems after this patch (Since I 
still can't reproduce it, I'm hoping the new autoreconf step might generate a 
working configure for you), please send me the newly verbose output of a 
`VERBOSE=1 make check'.  Hopefully, I'll have enough to go on at that point.

Cheers,
        Gary.

        * tests/defs (func_configure): cdemo, demo and mdemo are shows
        signs of indeterminacy for some users.  Be more verbose during
        failure to help track down the cause.
