It appears that many of these 42 failures are false positives.  
There seems to be something wrong with the testsuite makefile.  
If I type something like ">gmake gc_orphan_section_test.stdout" 
then the stdout file is created, and "./gc_orphan_section_test.sh" 
test passes just fine.

For whatever reason, these makefile targets aren't getting run.

I'm also getting several similar error messages like, "
Makefile:2639: warning: overriding recipe for target 'ifuncmain1picstatic'
Makefile:2636: warning: ignoring old recipe for target 'ifuncmain1picstatic'"
