Sorry I wasn't clear.
I was explaining to Paul why VERBOSE=yes was having no effect.
init.sh is used internally via most tests. There's no point
in running it stand-alone.
Here's something you can try, though:
edit init.sh and insert a "#" at the beginning of the set -x line.
I.e., change this:
if $gl_set_x_corrupts_stderr_; then
warn_ "using SHELL=$SHELL with 'set -x' corrupts stderr"
else
set -x
fi
to this:
if $gl_set_x_corrupts_stderr_; then
warn_ "using SHELL=$SHELL with 'set -x' corrupts stderr"
else
# set -x
fi
Then run "make check VERBOSE=yes" and send us the tests/test-suite.log
it produces.
That will probably induce additional test failures,
but at least it will allow us to see verbose output.
