+       tests: use perl for printing special sequences to files.
+       And skip tests if perl is not available.  This is better than
+       playing tricks with shell portability.  Suggested by Akim
+       Demaille.
+       * tests/input.at (Bad character literals): Use it here for
+       omitting final newlines.
+       (Bad escapes in literals): Use it here for special characters.

+       tests: show a use of %define lr.default-reductions "consistent"
+       * tests/conflicts.at (%nonassoc and eof): Extend to test that it
+       prevents the omission of expected tokens for %error-verbose.

+       * tests/input.at (Bad escapes in literals): Don't expect "echo
