I personally hate how the test framework mandates:

  "There must be exactly one test per line."

which makes the test case, for example, one long liner like this:

  if ((p1 = p2 = sbrk(4096)) != (void *)-1) p2 = sbrk(-4096); EXPECT_SYSZR(1, (p2 == (void *)-1) || p2 == p1); break;

that's ugly and hard to read. Can we get rid of this "one test per line" rule?

It would be great if we followed the documented coding style that says:

   "Statements longer than 80 columns should be broken into sensible chunks,
    unless exceeding 80 columns significantly increases readability and does
    not hide information." [1]

What we have here doesn't really increase the readability at all. Maybe
it's too late for 5.20, just for next in case we want to fix it.

Willy?
