Ah, OK. Does the following output "buggy shell", then?
if (ulimit -n 10; : <&-) 2>/dev/null
then echo OK
else echo Houston we have a problem
fi
It would be helpful if this could be tried on FreeBSD as well;
that way, we wouldn't have to do this test as well as the
more-complicated test.
I don't see how this behavior can be defended as "not a bug",
but we don't have to resolve that issue right now; all we have
to do is to fix the tests so that they don't incorrectly report
a bug in tar when this (ahem) "situation" arises with the shell.
