No info is needed. Everything is in the big report, including the proper 
fix. But if The Powers That Be want to keep using pointless non-portable 
GNUisms instead of standard SUSv3 etc. commands, there's nothing I can do 
about it. I just hate the current "all the world is Linux" idiocy, which is 
almost as bad as the old "all the world's a VAX" portability hell. We have 
standards, and we should use them.
