Re: Solaris 11 info test suite problems

[Karl Berry]

    The best option, I think, is to run "stty sane" at the end.

Sorry to make things more complicated, but ... if we are running under
that shell on that system, I think ...  changing terminal settings when
it's unnecessary does not sound good.

Another thought: if under this shell+system, exec some other shell.  I
had to do this in run_parser_all.sh a few days ago in order to make the
tests workable on Solaris 5.10 (sparc anyway); see comments at top.

Another thought: ask Dagobert for advice.  Maybe there is some special
setting needed to get rid of UTF-8.  (Also, I would think that all tests
should be run in the C locale anyway -- I seem to recall you were doing
that already.)

    According to the ksh93 change log on
    http://www2.research.att.com/sw/download/, someone fixed this bug on
    22-9-2011.

Unfortunately, that doesn't mean much.  Upstream fixes may or may not
ever make it into distros.  Especially Solaris.  E.g., I would hope that
Dagobert's system is up to date wrt system patches.
