Ah sorry, I am trying to fix crew-stable, not -stable.

Well, we are not really testing CVS here. We just want to have some 
feedback about the files being committed, as well as debugging context 
the test were to failed. I guess listing the files is enough.

I don't really know. I am only concerned about portability here, since 
these commands are not issued in a loop. I think the first one is better 
in this regard. Just one question, is there any reason for the "-F" 
optimizations aside ?

BTW, thanks for the report and the patch !
