t/tools/mk_language_shell.t: FAILs two tests

[jkeenan]

This newly added test file is failing to pass two of its tests. I have observed the following on both Linux/i386 and Darwin/PPC (and see Smolder for reports from other systems):

$ prove t/tools/mk_language_shell.t 
t/tools/mk_language_shell.t .. 6/7 
#   Failed test 'language builds, exit code = 1'
#   at t/tools/mk_language_shell.t line 62.

#   Failed test 'language passes all tests, exit code = 1'
#   at t/tools/mk_language_shell.t line 67.
# Looks like you failed 2 tests of 7.

On #parrot dukeleto asked me to run certain commands to debug the problem. Here's an example of what I get on Linux/i386:

dukeleto commented: Looks like making a new language depends on install_config.o being around, which isn't built unless "make install" is called. All my machines install into the build dir before testing, so it doesn't happen on them.

But including any test file in make test implies that it ought to pass before make install is run. Perhaps a make test_post_install target is needed.

Should be fixed in r49502. Please confirm.

Confirmed on both Linux/i386 and Darwin/PPC. Closing ticket. Thank you very much.
