The problem appears to be in make_openout_test () with
eval "$tex_cmd" >/dev/null 2>&1
When changing this line to
echo before eval
echo "$tex_cmd"
eval "$tex_cmd" >/dev/null 2>&1
echo after eval
we have
$ ./texi2dvi test1.tex
before eval
latex --file-line-error </dev/null '
onstopmode' '\input' ./openout.tex
(The newline before onstopmode is there and was not introduced by
accident when pasting into this mail.)
When running with
eval "$tex_cmd"
instead we obtain
before eval
latex --file-line-error </dev/null '
onstopmode' '\input' ./openout.tex
