there are still another problems in the ld-bootstrap test, but I couldn't find
the reason. Perhaps someone else could fix this.


compare (tail of) tmpdir/ld2 tmpdir/ld3
cmp tmpdir/ld2 tmpdir/ld3
tmpdir/ld2 tmpdir/ld3 differ: char 137, line 2
child process exited abnormally
FAIL: bootstrap

It seems that the relating code has some problems I can't see.

        exec tail +140 tmpdir/ld2 >tmpdir/ld2tail
        exec tail +140 tmpdir/ld3 >tmpdir/ld3tail
        catch "exec cmp tmpdir/ld2tail tmpdir/ld3tail" exec_output
        exec rm tmpdir/ld2tail tmpdir/ld3tail
    } else {
        send_log "cmp tmpdir/ld2 tmpdir/ld3\n"
        verbose  "cmp tmpdir/ld2 tmpdir/ld3"
        catch "exec cmp tmpdir/ld2 tmpdir/ld3" exec_output
    }
    set exec_output [prune_warnings $exec_output]


The above mentioned code suggest me, that if there are difference, the cmp
should print

	tmpdir/ld2tail tmpdir/ld3tail differ: char 137, line 2

instead  of

	tmpdir/ld2 tmpdir/ld3 differ: char 137, line 2

So at least the xxtail stuff seems not to work.
