Hi Jim, [...]
Autoconf already has a lot of code to detect and work around the idiosyncrasies of many shells, and I don't want to maintain such code separately from autoconf. So can you see a way to get the required bourne shell code from autoconf into coreutils' test-lib.sh Yes, it looks like it'd involve undocumented macros, but for tests, that doesn't seem prohibitive.
Can't you (re)write test-lib.sh with m4sh and generate test-lib.sh from test-lib.m4sh (which is what libtool does for ltmain.sh)?
