Strange bug with common.mk, File, Test::Unit

Hi all,

Ruby 1.8.6-p114
OS X, Solaris, Windows XP and Linux

I added a couple of test tasks in the common.mk file so that I could 
test specific subsets of test files. Below are just two that I added.

Really?  I get the error like your test-file, with

$ make TESTSDIR='$(srcdir)/test/core/Array' test-all

it rather seems a problem that test-arry works.
