Ahh, but it would have needed to be in that very patch, unfortunately.
As it is, my last patch fixed Tru64, but regressed NetBSD by roughly the
same number of failures, because `unset NOT_SET' fails there.

Luckily the `set +e/set -e' commands weren't actually required for
Tru64 sh to work (they just didn't help either, that was all), so
unless you complain I'll reinstate that part of the code again.

For tests-init -> master.

Thanks,
Ralf
