No, I did not suggest that at all.  I said you would make the tester do
this, and by that I meant string/tester.c or a wrapper around it, or some
functions within it, etc.  So you, the glibc developer, have to write into
the test code the necessary knowledge of what mask permutations are
interesting to run.


Thanks,
