I tried patching that line with a trivial `(substitute* ... (("test
spaces") ""))` snippet and it does fix all but 7 failures. The remaining
ones could just be caused by some simple egrep vs grep -E warnings, but
I will have very little time to look into this during the next six
weeks. Anyone interested should feel free to try finalizing this series
in the meantime.
