Thanks for explaining this. The first failure, though, I think is
due to an unportable use of \< and \> in a sed pattern. And the
other failures can be worked around. I installed this into the
trunk. Maybe some of these should go into the 5.9x branch?

Fix some porting problems in the test cases reported by
Ralf Wildenhues for HP-UX 11.23 in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-05/msg00238.html
* tests/help-version: Don't assume that \< \> works in sed.
* tests/misc/close-stdout: Don't assume that >&- works.
Add a /dev/full test.
* tests/touch/no-create-missing: Don't assume that >&- works.
