I've applied patches 1-4, and I get these test failures if I run "make
check" with stdin redirected from /dev/null:

run-read
37c37
<

> 4
39c39
< 
---
> 4
42c42
<

> 4

run-test
58c58
< 1

> 0

It happens that I redirected stdin from /dev/null just to work around
the "test -r /dev/stdin" bug in configure, but I think the tests
shouldn't care anyway.  If the properties of stdin are important, the
test scripts should redirect stdin appropriately themselves, rather
than assuming.
