"warning no tests to run"

I'm curious about the expected use of "go test".

Specifically, I was setting up gwacl to run under go-bot, and I only
happened to discover that one of their subdirectories isn't actually
running any tests.

They *have* a foo_test.go file, but they forgot to add the "func
Test(...)" magic to connect gocheck into the testing framework.

If you "cd subdir; go test" you do at least get a warning:
testing: warning: no tests to run
PASS
ok      launchpad.net/gwacl/logging     0.011s

However, if you run it using ./... you don't even see that:

?       launchpad.net/gwacl/fork/tls    [no test files]
ok      launchpad.net/gwacl/logging     0.010s

So it looks like it successfully ran all the tests in that
subdirectory, and doesn't even warn you that there weren't any tests
run (it only warns you when a directory doesn't have a test file).

Is this something that should be fixed? (I would submit an issue, but
the last one I submitted got 0 feedback after a few months now.)
