Yes, I think they are useful, but I was waiting for DJ to have some time 
to discuss.

Since this was orifinally done by Sun, the tests probably assume a shell 
program different from bash.  That may explain some of the problems.

Personally, I wouldn't release anything that causes any warnings.   If 
other environments cause warnings, then that is worth checking out and 
either fixing the code or fixing the test.
