[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi,

I have two failing tests for GNU grep 2.16 on Solaris 10 Sparc with Sun Studio 12:
  http://buildfarm.opencsw.org/~dam/grep-2.16-test-suite.log

Both boil down to the error

  + /bin/sh ere.script
  ere.script: syntax error at line 3: `status=$’ unexpected

generated from bre.awk using the bashism

  printf ("status=$(echo '%s' | { grep -e '%s' > /dev/null 2>&1; echo $? ; })\n",$3, $2);


Best regards

  — Dago
