Redirection errors on subshells already did not abort the shell because
the redirection is executed in the subshell.
Other shells seem to agree that these redirection errors should not abort
the shell.
Also ensure that the redirections will be cleaned up properly in cases like
command eval '{ shift x; } 2>/dev/null'
Example:
{ echo bad; } </var/empty/x; echo good
- A couple of tests to check if the layout of the generated calenders
is correct.
- A couple of tests to see if impossible combinations for -3, -A,
-m, -y etc properly abort.
- A couple of test to confirm that the order of -A, -B, -3 etc give
the right number of months.
Although simple commands without a command word (only assignments and/or
redirections) are much like special builtins, POSIX and most shells seem to
agree that redirection errors should not abort the shell in this case. Of
course, the assignments persist and assignment errors are fatal.
To get the old behaviour portably, use the ':' special builtin.
To get the new behaviour portably, given that there are no assignments, use
the 'true' regular builtin.
We currently ignore readonly status for assignments before regular builtins
and external programs (these assignments are not persistent anyway), so just
check that the readonly variable really is not changed.
The test depends on the command builtin changes for 'command :'.
These expansions, which were already in the Bourne shell, work correctly for
the most part. The testcases are only about the parts that already work
correctly.
They are mainly about expansions in here documents but because all the
testcases are in $() command substitution, we also test that $() command
substitution is recursively parsed (or very close to it).
* avoid unnecessary fork
* allow executing builtins via command
* executing a special builtin via command removes its special properties

snprintf(3) doesn't set errno in the tested cases.
- If the same argument reference (for example %1) was specified more than
once, the command didn't necessarily fit to the final command buffer. Fix
this using a dynamic sbuf buffer. Add a few regression tests for the case.

ports tree extensively and it is probably a good idea to keep it
regardless of NO_MAIL setting.
