[PATCH 0/5] Convert automake testsuite to the use of a POSIX shell

[Stefano Lattarini]

This patches are the first step in that direction.  I will push in 72 hours
if there is no objection.

Stefano Lattarini (5):
  tests: shell running test scripts is now named AM_TEST_RUNNER_SHELL
  configure: search a sturdy POSIX shell to be used in the testsuite
  tests: remove obsolete uses of $sh_errexit_works
  test defs: fix indentation (cosmetic change)
  tests: fix a spurious failure with dash
