+# Test for a behaviour of `TESTS_ENVIRONMENT' and `AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT'
+# w.r.t. file descriptor redirections which, although undocumented,
+# is nonetheless required by Gnulib's 'tests/init.sh' and by coreutils'
+# testsuite.
+# The checked behaviour is that we can portably do file descriptor
+# redirections by placing them at the end of a {AM_,}TESTS_ENVIRONMENT
+# definition without a following semicolon.  The need to support this
+# is detailedly motivated by coreutils bug#8846:
+#   <http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=8846>
+# and the following CC:ed thread on bug-autoconf list:
