rather than using a fixed port number. This means that the regression test
can be run many times in a row without waiting on TIMEWAIT to release a
hard-coded port number.

Examples:
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 printf '%d\n' $(printf \'\\303\\244)
LC_ALL=en_US.ISO8859-1 printf '%d\n' $(printf \'\\344)
Both of these should print 228.
Like some other shells, incomplete or invalid multibyte characters yield the
value of the first byte without a warning.
Note that there is no general way to go back from the character code to the
character.
CDPATH should be ignored not only for pathnames starting with '/' but also
for pathnames whose first component is '.' or '..'.
The man page already describes this behaviour.
If IFS is null, unquoted $@/$* should still expand to separate words.
This differs from quoted $@ (which does not depend on IFS) in that pathname
generation is performed and empty words are removed.
If WITH_BSD_GREP is not set, it will be 'bsdgrep' and GNUgrep will be
'[ef]grep'. Otherwise, BSD-grep will be the grep family, and GNUgrep
will be 'gnugrep'.

This reflects failure to determine the pathname of the new directory in the
exit status (1). Normally, cd returns successfully if it did chdir() and the
call was successful.
In POSIX, -e only has meaning with -P; because our -L is not entirely
compliant and may fall back to -P mode, -e has some effect with -L as well.
This is sometimes used with eval or old-style command substitution, and most
shells other than ash derivatives allow it.
It can also be used with scripts that violate POSIX's requirement on the
application that they end in a newline (scripts must be text files except
that line length is unlimited).
Example:
v=`cat <<EOF
foo
EOF`
echo $v
This commit does not add support for the similar construct with new-style
command substitution, like
v=$(cat <<EOF
foo
EOF)
This continues to require a newline after the terminator.
the architecture, reflect this in documentation. For such
options, both WITH_FOO and WITHOUT_FOO description files should
be provided.

- Setting a build option may enforce other build options, try harder
to detect this case.

Because we have no iconv in base, support for other charsets is not
possible.
Note that \u/\U are processed using the locale that was active when the
shell started. This is necessary to avoid behaviour that depends on the
parse/execute split (for example when placing braces around an entire
script). Therefore, UTF-8 encoding is implemented manually.
?, [...] patterns match codepoints instead of bytes. They do not match
invalid sequences. [...] patterns must not contain invalid sequences
otherwise they will not match anything. This is so that ${var#?} removes the
first codepoint, not the first byte, without putting UTF-8 knowledge into
the ${var#pattern} code. However, * continues to match any string and an
invalid sequence matches an identical invalid sequence. (This differs from
fnmatch(3).)
A string between $' and ' may contain backslash escape sequences similar to
the ones in a C string constant (except that a single-quote must be escaped
and a double-quote need not be). Details are in the sh(1) man page.
This construct is useful to include unprintable characters, tabs and
newlines in strings; while this can be done with a command substitution
containing a printf command, that needs ugly workarounds if the result is to
end with a newline as command substitution removes all trailing newlines.
The construct may also be useful in future to describe unprintable
characters without needing to write those characters themselves in 'set -x',
'export -p' and the like.
The implementation attempts to comply to the proposal for the next issue of
the POSIX specification. Because this construct is not in POSIX.1-2008,
using it in scripts intended to be portable is unwise.
Matching the minimal locale support in the rest of sh, the \u and \U
sequences are currently not useful.

Note that this only applies to variables that are actually used.
Things like (0 && unsetvar) do not cause an error.

In particular, this makes things like ${#foo[0]} and ${#foo[@]} errors
rather than silent equivalents of ${#foo}.
