Re: make check failure in fileutils-4.0.32

[Vin Shelton]

Yes, I agree that the problem is odd.  I think it has to do with Sun's
sed.  Are you using GNU sed by any chance?  In any case, inside the
perm test, this line:

    set - `echo "$tests"|tr -d '\012'|sed 's/^ *//;s/ *:/:/g;s/: */:/g'`

results in no arguments being set.

Here is the output you requested:
