Yes, `make check` generally works fine.  I can't offer you an answer,
but maybe a hint, I was able to reproduce the warning you see above by
doing:

  mv binutils-gdb/gas/testsuite binutils/gas/testsuite.old

So maybe double check that your build tree is correctly configured to
your source tree, and that your source tree doesn't have any missing
files under gas/testsuite ?

Someone else may offer more insight.

Good luck,
Andrew
