The patch applied to the test(1) command on 12 August was incorrect, as shown by this example:
term% test 1 -gt 2 -o 3 -lt 4 && echo yes yes term% test 1 -lt 2 -o 3 -lt 4 && echo yes test: unexpected operator/operand: 3 term% Because the -a and -o operators don't necessarily evaluate their right-hand argument, it's wrong to assume that there should be no arguments remaining when the top-level expresssion evaluation returns. The result is not just a spurious error message but possibly an incorrect truth status, so I would suggest that anyone who has pulled from sources since 12 August should revert to the previous version of /386/bin/test. -- Richard
