Erik, Ok. These tests will be skipped if bc(1) is not available.

Yes, bc looks quite nice. As Richard Ash mentioned, the test should detect the presence of bc and it its not available, print a nice big warning, and exit the script with an error code of 0. If bc is available, run the tests and any failure should result in the script exiting with a non-zero error code.
