Diomidis Spinellis 37c94e1d78 Test 8.16 in sed.test tests the ability of a sed to handle an empty regular expression as the first argument to a substitute command. If used to test a sed which (erroneously) evaluates this at translation time rather than at execution time, the bugged sed is put into an infinite loop. This mode of failure seems excessive. Such a failing sed is the Free Software Foundation's sed 3.02. The specific test was also not being executed for the BSD sed. Both problems are now fixed.

This directory is for regression test programs.

A regression test program is one that will exercise a particular bit of the
system to check that we have not reintroduced an old bug.

Tests that are for parts of the base system should go into a directory here
which is the same as their path relative to src/, for example the uuencode(1)
utility resides in src/usr.bin/uuencode so its regression test resides in
src/tools/regression/usr.bin/uuencode.

Base system regression tests should prefix their test results with 'PASS' or
'FAIL' accordingly, to make checking for failed tests easier.  For now the
tests are very free-form, and it's up to you to do that.  Eventually, it
should be a part of the regression test framework.

Please make a subdir per other regression test, and add a brief description to
this file.
