<id>urn:sha1:ebc7aacf7b7115bf51305579aaa7ddce77301fd7</id>
<content type='text'>
Before this change, :&gt;f; ln -T f no-such/ would succeed on Solaris 10.
After it, ln fails, as it should: ln: accessing `z/': Not a directory
The command, link f no-such/, had the same problem on that system.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add "link".
* tests/ln/slash-decorated-nonexistent-dest: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add it.
* NEWS (Portability): Mention the improvement.

"tests: tail-2/assert: avoid risk of race condition"
kill -0 doesn't send a signal and so will only confirm that the

* tests/misc/cat-buf: Increase the delay between writes
to decrease the chance that dd will read both at once.
Since the test is inherently racy, print a warning via
skip_test_ rather than failing outright.
