Subject: tests: nice: adjust new tests to work more portably
X-Git-Tag: v8.1~79
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=50e837b1c454e7eb50d0fc67e7f16668b3e288aa;p=thirdparty%2Fcoreutils.git

tests: nice: adjust new tests to work more portably

* tests/misc/nice (tests): Accommodate a nice program for which
"nice -n -1 nice" prints nothing.  It should print -1 or (usually) 0.
Otherwise, we'd get syntax errors.
