I think it should work fine.
I have found one additional working mechanism: RUNTESTFLAGS='i386.exp=\"pr80969-[12]*.c pr80969-4.c\"' But using double quotes for both does NOT work: RUNTESTFLAGS="i386.exp=\"pr80969-[12]*.c pr80969-4.c\"" So the three working options appears to be: 1. Escaping whitespace 2. Using double quotes for the whole value and single quotes for the file.exp=patterns expression 3. Using single quotes for the whole value and double quotes for the file.exp=patterns expression Daniel
