Sorry for sounding so depressing; I'm very pleased to see your efforts in providing tests for the code you've written. Even though this test is intended to be skipped on non-Linux, you still have to worry about merely parsing through the test on other platforms like Solaris, where /bin/sh won't understand the bash-isms and where /bin/bash is not guaranteed to exist. But if we decide that requiring the presence of /bin/bash is acceptable for the TCK, then a lot of my review becomes irrelevant; but my comments about your mkstemp replacement being insecure are still applicable even in that case.
Ok. Well, I hope for bash then... Stefan
