Apart from needing make -k being unnecessarily different from normal
conventions for how testsuites work, it also doesn't work for getting the
test summaries: if any tests (dependencies of the tests target) fail then
the makefile rule for the tests target (which in a subdirectory generates
subdir-tests.sum, and at toplevel also generates tests.sum) doesn't get
run. The point of this patch is to generate a normal summary file of test
results at toplevel, regardless of whether individual tests passed or
failed - so you don't need to use -k and postprocess make output to
identify failures.
