I've run the test suite on the MS-Windows build of this RC. All the tests that are expected to pass, do pass, after tweaking the scripts to heed to MS-Windows idiosyncrasies. The following tests should be disabled on MS-Windows, because they cannot possibly work: . 1 test in misc/bs-nl that uses single quotes around newlines . 1 test in misc/general3 that uses single quotes around newlines . 1 test in misc/general4 that unsets PATH (this cannot work on Windows because Make will be unable to find the DLLs against which it was linked, so it fails to start without valid PATH) . targets/ONESHELL in its entirety (this feature doesn't work on Windows) . targets/POSIX in its entirety
