[petsc-dev] Globsearch fails for me when running tests

[Jed Brown]

Scott, you can't pass '$(alltesttargets)' on the command line like this.

  TESTTARGETS := $(shell $(PYTHON) -c"import sys,fnmatch,itertools; m=[fnmatch.filter(sys.argv[2].split(),p) for p in sys.argv[1].split()]; print(' '.join(list(itertools.chain.from_iterable(m))))" '$(globsearch)' '$(alltesttargets)')

For this feature, probably put them in an argsfile

  $(file >$(TESTDIR)/globsearch.args,$(alltesttargets))

and make your Python read from that file.  I don't know a way to pass it
on stdin.
