This should be a hard failure.  Asking grep to open a directory and
search for patterns in it is wrong.

Well, I agree.  But the test suite doesn't.

Yes, that's why it's an expected failure.

If you get XPASSes from the last two on Windows, that's good. :)

Indeed, I do.

So it would make sense not to flag it as XPASS, I think.

Yeah, you could add a configure run-time test that opens a directory and an Automake conditional. If the test fails, the Automake conditional should _not_ mark the tests as expected failures.
