Subject: tests: work around spurious test failure with OpenBSD4.5's /bin/sh
X-Git-Tag: v8.4~2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f28c7d959be30be0b216880878e8b0909d810a18;p=thirdparty%2Fcoreutils.git

tests: work around spurious test failure with OpenBSD4.5's /bin/sh

* tests/ls/infloop: OpenBSD4.5's /bin/sh would mistakenly include
"set -x"-output in an application's stderr stream when stderr is
redirected before stdout.  This was causing one spurious test failure.
The work-around: redirect stdout first.
Reported by Nelson Beebe.
