I would actually not add this to TEST_LINT by default, especially
when "duplicates" and "executable" that are much simpler and less
likely to hit false positives are not on by default.

At least, a change to add this to TEST_LINT by default must wait to
be merged to any integration branch until all the fix-up topics that
this test triggers in the current codebase graduate to the branch.

You are correct; "harness" thing in the same Makefile gets this
wrong, too.  I think the right invocation is:

	@'$(PERL_PATH_SQ)' check-non-portable.shell.pl $(T)

although I do not offhand know if that symbol is already exported by
the top-level Makefile.
