[PATCH] tests: port test-fdutimensat.c to Solaris 8

2010-12-24 Thread Paul Eggert
* tests/test-fdutimensat.c (do_fdutimens): Don't assume fdutimensat works with a nonnegative fd and AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW. On Solaris 8, it fails with errno == ENOSYS, because there is no futimens (so it can't use the fd), and there is no lutimens (so it can't implement AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW on

Hello Paul, This prints 513 0.0 rather than the correct 513 1.0. Indeed. I reproduce on Solaris 10/SPARC. On Solaris 10/x86, the result is simply a SIGSEGV. When I build a testdir for 'snprintf-posix', the results are: - On Solaris 10/x86: checking whether printf supports large
