 That sounds reasonable for now.  I wish there was 'one true' automated
 testing software, because now it looks as if we need 'expect', 'dejagnu',
 'autotest' and 'check' to get full test coverage in LFS.

 Colin, if you're still reading this, was there a particular reason that
 you chose to use 'check'?  Would you be interested if I were to take a
 shot at converting your test suite to autotest instead?  That way, the
 tests would be self-contained; not depending on any external package.
