The new termrc avoids using test when looking for swap partitions.
The old termrc sometimes invoked test as

        test -f file1 file2

which is incorrect, though tolerated by the new test command because
of the need to tolerate unprocessed arguments in the presence of
short-circuit -a and -o evaluation.  If test were modified to process
all its arguments at the start (presumably building an expression
tree), it could then complain about excess arguments again.
