   Hello, RCS maintainers!

   When I ran "make check", I had to specify
     TESTS_ENVIRONMENT='PATHPREFIX="$(PATHPREFIX)" bash'
   because some test scripts uses new $() notation,
   instead of backquotes.

Thanks.  This is a known problem, fixed in the repo:

Regrettably, a full audit for bashisms has not yet been
performed, and you might run into other (similar) problems.
I hope you will report them, too, before the next release.

(Hmm, i wonder if there is a program to do this kind of audit...)
