Thanks for these (accepting all but one).  Would #!/bin/sh --posix in
the harness help for making sure we don't use features we shouldn't?

You meant '-u, -x flags', right?  Please correct me or resubmit with an

I don't mean to be a pain for such a minor detail, but I'm thinking that
this might save us some future confusion.

By the way, are you still planning to resubmit the quoted matchers

pickiness.
