It is unable to create files on these system. The following output:

+10242 10240

means that genfile attempted to create a file 10240 bytes long, but the
resulting file had 10242 bytes. The same for the rest of tests. What's
interesting, in all tests the actual file length is 2 bytes more than
requested. Any idea why?

./testsuite -k ID

where ID is any of identifiers listed in the file's AT_KEYWORDS
statement.

> In verbose mode?

./testsuite -k ID -v

For maximum verbosity:

./testsuite -k ID -v -x

That message was obviously too big to be accepted by the list.
