Have a look there :

./tie -c etex.ch /t/texlive/Build/source/TeX/texk/web2c/etexdir/tex.ch0 etex.web /t/texlive/Build/source/TeX/texk/web2c/tex.ch \
/t/texlive/Build/source/TeX/texk/web2c/etexdir/tex.ech /t/texlive/Build/source/TeX/texk/web2c/etexdir/tex.ch1
This is TIE, CWEB Version 2.4. (Web2C 7.3.7)
...

It should read:

 # Tests...

The other .mk files seems ok from this point of view.

Anyway, we should also  integrate Olaf's patch for the special
mechanism. And also make pdftex pdf backend quite about the specials.

This raises the question of banners : should we stick with one line
addition or change them ? The main problem I see with changing banners
is that we will need to change them in several places each new release
of pdftex.
