-Testing gawk with the included shell-scripts and .awk-files is not
-possible. As far as I found out this is a Shell problem (shell-
-metas), not a gawk problem. Using gawk from the commandline requires
-modifications, too. To perform at least some of the tests I'd
-suggest:
-
-        make >amitest -n bigtest
-
-then modifying 'amitest' to work with your shell and
-
-        execute amitest
-
-All tests that are depending on UNIX-shell specifics will fail (eg.
-redirection of stderr: stderr and stdout are identical on the Amiga).
-If I really have the time (currently I'm finishing my studies) I'll
-write an amiga-script for the tests ...

-Despite testing is not a thankful task, `gawk' works and I found it
-very useful for tasks where both shell scripts and C-programs are
-inadequate.
+Gawk succeeds in all tests, but not with 'make test'. When executing
+the tests by hand (e.g. 'make swaplns' and so on) gawk runs all tests
+ok except for the following:
+- argarray, awkpath: these do not work due to insufficient environment
+                     variable handling by pdksh ('bin:sh')
+- poundbang, regtest: pdksh refuses to handle the #! statement
+                      properly
+Modifying these tests in a way that only *gawk-features, not *sh-
+features are tested, it is found that gawk succeeds here too.
+- manyfiles: (error: too many open files) ixemul.library v39.45 uses
+             OPEN_MAX=64; manyfiles required at least OPEN_MAX=106
+This may only be overcome when mwild releases a new ixemul.library.
+Changing the number '100' in the 'manyfiles::'-target in
+'test/Makefile' to some value <= 58 (depends on the number of
+currently open files in ixemul.library) gawk tests successfully, too.
