Subject: tests: work around a failure with dash 0.5.4
X-Git-Tag: v8.6~50
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ea1b8bafc011689b17b3f732c4dc11f3c23fbdfe;p=thirdparty%2Fcoreutils.git

tests: work around a failure with dash 0.5.4

* tests/misc/env: Check that the shell can support
the operation, before filtering through `env`.
Note dash 0.5.5 is unaffected by this issue.
