Two tests in the Gnulib test suite are currently failing due to z/OS
idiosyncrasies relating to error messages.
The first one is test-perror.sh:
$ srcdir=/path/to/testdir/gltests /path/to/testdir/gltests/test-perror.sh
test-perror.sh: failed test: result should not contain a number
The content of the t-perror.tmp file when this failure occurs is
as follows:
EDC5111I Permission denied.
EDC8127I Connection timed out.
EDC5149I Value Overflow Error.
I don't understand why the script checks for numbers in the output, but
the check may need tweaking on this platform.
The second test is test-sigpipe.sh:
$ /path/to/testdir/gltests/test-sigpipe.sh
CEE5213S The signal SIGPIPE was received.
$ echo $?
1
The default SIGPIPE signal handler appears to write to stderr, and this
is separate from the "Broken pipe" message printed to the terminal:
$ ./test-sigpipe A | head -1
y
CEE5213S The signal SIGPIPE was received.
Broken pipe
This test could probably use a tweak as well.
