[Bug libstdc++/14775] LFS tests missing


------- Additional Comments From pcarlini at suse dot de  2004-03-29 19:33 -------
Hi. This is definitely in my TODO list. I already have the skeleton of a test,
adapted from glibc. And, the nice thing is that most modern filesystems support
sparse files, this means a 4G+eps file is never *actually* written! Good.

I would appreciate help on the following two items, however:
1- When and where running the test? Shall we run it everywhere, XFAILed? Or only
on LFS-enabled machines, possibly just wrapping the test in _GLIBCXX_USE_LFS?? 
Note that 64bit machines may actually be able to access > 4G files even if USE_LFS
is not defined!
2- The shell issue! We must make sure the ulimit are Ok when the test is run. This
is not the case by default on bash and tcsh.
