Summary: Two of gold testsuite scripts require bash

Suggested method to remove bash-specific notation from gold testsuite scripts
This was originally reported to the binutils mail list:
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2011-03/msg00366.html
========================================================
Most of the gold testsuite scripts start with "#!/bin/sh" and run fine on my
platform.
The following test scripts don't specify a shell unlike the rest:
* icf_safe_so_test.sh
* icf_safe_test.sh
icf_preemptible_functions_test.sh
icf_sht_rel_addend_test.sh
Two of those scripts (asterisk) fail on my platform because they use notation
specific to bash. I believe the intent is that all testsuite scripts only
require the Bourne shell and therefore these two scripts have a bug. I have
attached the patch I used to fix the two broken scripts. Hopefully somebody
agrees and incorporates the patches or provides and alternative solution.
