Would a newline before -* running test ... not fix this?

I think after -- making test results is where the newline needs to go. I just got this running a CI test on a draft of the Debian package:

:
   /usr/share/Macaulay2/MultiplicitySequence.m2:645:1:
   rerun with: check_4 "MultiplicitySequence" *-

No, I think the problem is that it prints " -- making test results" and then does not make a test result. It should not print that last one.
