Follow-up Comment #2, sr #110298 (project autoconf): POSIX suggests that the test relies on unspecified (undefined?) behavior if the output of the printf shell command is not properly encoded for the current locale.
Have you tried running the test with LC_ALL="C" in the environment? If that works around the problem, then we can set LC_ALL="C" for that test (we perhaps need to do that anyway...). _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?110298> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
