-# Stack limit calibration for `make check'.  (For why we do this, see
-# the comments in measure-hwm.scm.)  We're relying here on a couple of
-# bits of Automake magic.
-#
-# 1. The fact that "libguile" comes before "test-suite" in SUBDIRS in
-# our toplevel Makefile.am.  This ensures that the
-# stack-limit-calibration.scm "test" will be run before any of the
-# tests under test-suite.
-#
-# 2. The fact that each test is invoked as $TESTS_ENVIRONMENT $test.
-# This allows us to ensure that the test will be considered to have
-# passed, by using `true' as TESTS_ENVIRONMENT.
-#
-# Why don't we care about the test "actually passing"?  Because the
-# important thing about stack-limit-calibration.scm is just that it is
-# generated in the first place, so that other tests under test-suite
-# can use it.
