Problem running the tests and question about run time tests

[nncarlson]

Hello @rouson, I thought I'd try adding some of my gfortran bug examples to AdHoc, but I seem to be having problems running the existing tests with the current repo. When I run ctest (after an apparently successful "cmake", "make", "make install") I see failures for all 3 gnu tests (I'm setup to use gfortran) that look like

3/3 Test #3: gnu-bug-68196 ....................***Failed Required regular expression not found.Regex=[Test passed.] 0.04 sec

Yet the compile of the test code was actually successful (I'm using the latest svn 5 branch). It seems like the test script should have written "Test passed" but didn't? I'm confused.

Also there doesn't seem to be any run time test harness yet, just compile time tests -- is that right? My issues with deferred-length characters are mostly run time from the compiler generating bad code.

@nncarlson Thanks for contributing. I'm working on a proposal that is due Tuesday. Could we set up some time to discuss this briefly sometime after then? Probably the best days for me are Thursday and Friday. You could choose a time at http://rouson.youcanbook.me and we could probably fix this in a few minutes of interactive discussion.
