distcheck is generated target and is removing permissions from its running directory. chmod -R a-w $(distdir); chmod a+w $(distdir). Because of this permissions eg test reports are not generated.
I have myself never run this test (and I'm afraid no one have run  this target during this year). Written checking targets are 'make check' for unit test and 'make run-netx-dist-tests' for reproducers tests.

However,attached patch [RFC] should fix both issues.
