    refactor: get rid of am__EXEEXT
    
    We can substitute that with a static automake conditional %?HANDLE-EXEEXT%
    and make runtime checks on $(EXEEXT).

    parallel-tests: more refactoring, with some semantic changes
    
    We further move some pre-processing related to the parallel testsuite
    harness support from Automake runtime to make runtime.
    
    A welcome collateral effect of this is that we are now able to cope
    with test scripts whose name ends with several concatenated suffixes.
    
    Another (less welcome) collateral effect of the present change is that
    the user now cannot override TEST_LOGS at make runtime anymore:
    
      # This won't work anymore!
      make check TESTS_LOGS="foo.log bar.log baz.log"
    
    But this is not a real problem, since we now explicitly allow *and*
    *document* that TESTS can be overridden at runtime without bothering
    to add the test suffixes to its entries:
    
      # This will work even if complete names of the tests are (say)
      # "foo.test", "bar.test$(EXEEXT)" and "baz$(EXEEXT)".
      make check TESTS="foo bar baz"
    
    With this usage, the user don't have to bother knowing which the exact
    extensions of each tests are -- which was precisely the only advantage
    of overriding TEST_LOGS instead of TESTS.
