GNU Coding Standards state that tr can be assumed to be available (and it should be part of mingw). But you are right that on Windows it is not a standard command unless you have installed it (as part of MSYS, cygwin, etc...) > FWIW, there are other failures too: > > test-pipe.c:79: assertion failed > test-pipe.sh: iteration 4 failed > test-pipe.c:79: assertion failed > test-pipe.sh: iteration 5 failed > test-pipe.c:79: assertion failed > test-pipe.sh: iteration 6 failed > test-pipe.c:79: assertion failed > test-pipe.sh: iteration 7 failed > FAIL: test-pipe.sh Hmm; that worked for me when cross-compiling from cygwin to mingw, but maybe when executed directly in Windows, there is something affecting how stderr is passed to child processes. I'll have to see if I can reproduce your test setup. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
