On NetBSD 7.0, 6.1.4, One test fails (zgrep-f) perhaps due to filename issues?


No, NetBSD's mktemp command is incompatible with GNU's, in terms of the interpretation of -t. The simplest fix is to stop using mktemp's -t option (which has been "deprecated" in the GNU version for many years anyway).

I'm adding Alpine Linux to my test suite ( https://alpinelinux.org/ ).

On this system, zdiff check fails because busybox's diff does not support the 
"-c" option

Wow, *that* is stripped down. Well, it shouldn't be that hard to port to. Does the attached patch fix the problem (as well as the NetBSD problem)?
