manifest_tests Makefile target does not work in release tarball

Description

parrot-1.2.0 % prove t/manifest
t/manifest/01-basic.t ............ skipped: (no reason given)
t/manifest/02-regenerate_file.t .. skipped: (no reason given)
t/manifest/03-regenerate_skip.t .. skipped: (no reason given)
t/manifest/04-alt_file.t ......... skipped: (no reason given)
t/manifest/05-alt_skip.t ......... skipped: (no reason given)
Files=5, Tests=0,  1 wallclock secs ( 0.04 usr  0.01 sys +  0.29 cusr  0.04 csys =  0.38 CPU)
Result: NOTESTS

This is run as part of "fulltest", and the NOTESTS return value is apparently considered "false" by GNU make. This causes failure when following step 6 of docs/project/release_manager_guide.pod (testing the tarball).

I was able to verify through other means that all the files mentioned in MANIFEST are present, and that everything seems to work fine. This is just an interruption of an otherwise smooth test process.

Replying to Infinoid:

Fixed in r39000. What we'll do is this: When working in a release tarball, rather than saying skip_all, we'll skip all but one test -- a pass(). The test file will register PASS and keep make manifest_tests -- and, by extension, make fulltest -- happy.

Thank you very much.
