+ tests: fix spurious failure of txinfo21.test on FreeBSD
+ * tests/txinfo21.test: Use the `is_newest' subroutine instead of
+ the `ls -t' hack to to determine whether a file has been updated.
+ This is required because at least FreeBSD `ls' do not sort files
+ with the same timestamp in alphabetical order when using the `-t'
+ option.

+
+ depmod tests: fix bug in depmodes list extraction
+ * tests/depmod-tests.sh (get_depmodes): Use `echo $all_depmodes'
+ instead of `... | tr "$nl" "$sp"' to strip extra whitespaces and
+ newlines from `$all_depmodes'. The latter idiom with `tr' is
+ wrong since it gets run before `./defs' is sourced, and thus `$nl'
+ and `$sp' are undefined.
+ Bug revealad by FreeBSD tr(1) implementation, which doesn't accept
+ empty strings as arguments.
