I was assuming the availability of "stdbuf" which is part of coreutils, and "perl" which is already required for at least one other test (sysctl). What do you have in mind for the "maximum supported environment" (and where's best to document this)? Also, I see python is used by several tests.

I could likely rewrite the "prefix.pl" in C, and the test could use a built binary instead? Or in python (as noted above).

Take a look at emit_tests > and EMIT_TESTS in Makefile and lib.mk Ah yeah. I will adjust EMIT_TESTS too. Thanks! -- Kees Cook
