Hi!  Thanks for report. Did you need to change any of the code?

I suspect the problem is that you need to have the POSIX tool "expr"
installed.

However, the above tests are in the gltests/ directory which are
non-critical -- the important self-tests are for libidn library itself:

And since they all passed, your build should work fine.
