The current page also says there isn't a test suite.  However, there
are test bc scripts provided, just no convenient Makefile target. 
Here's the loop I came up with:

for TEST in Test/{checklib,testfn}.b; do
    echo "quit" | ./bc/bc -l $TEST
done

The `echo "quit"' is needed because the scripts don't end with a quit
command.  There's quite a bit of output, and 10 of the roughly 10,000
fail.  Oddly, it's always with the same error that the two values
differ in number of significant digits by 4.  Here's a sample.

Checking e(x)
scale = 10

Failed:
  index = 97
  val1 = 1338334719204269500461736408706115029076717.4572136445
  val2 = 1338334719204269500461736408706115029076717.45721364460012

Should the tests be added?  Should the output be redirected to a file?
