Thanks Roland.
There's another failure I'm seeing which is likely due to POSIX shell
vs. bash extensions.
The case is localedata/tst-fmon.sh and has to do with the handling of
IFS during 'read'.
tst-fmon.sh expects "one or more" IFS characters to seperate fields.
So "X<TAB><TAB>Y" results in fields "X" and "Y".
'dash' on the other hand only matchs one IFS character for field
seperation so in the example we get fields "X" and "<TAB>"
Any idea if this is a POSIX issue too? Meanwhile, I've asked the
'dash' maintainer about this and am waiting for his feedback.
