Makes sense.

I'm perhaps nit-picking here, but I find:

    for suite in "$@"
    do
        ...
    done

to be much more readable than 'while test "$#" -ne 0' and 'shift' above, since the for-loop variant does not need to mangle its arguments with shift.

This part is a faithful translation of the original Makefile. Looking good.

Thanks, Taylor
