# TEST 2: shell assignment variables (from !=) should be recursive.
33
# Note that variables are re-evaluated later, so the shell can output
34
# a value like $(XYZZY) as part of !=. The $(XYZZY) will be EVALUATED
35
# when the value containing it is evaluated. On the negative side, this
36
# means if you don't want this, you need to escape dollar signs as $$.
37
# On the positive side, it means that shell programs can output macros
38
# that are then evaluated as they are traditionally evaluated.. and that
39
# you can use traditional macro evaluation semantics to implement !=.
