HI Mary.

Most looks fine.  I have only one remaining comment:
78: How come setting the environment needs to be run with sudo? The environment should be settable as a normal user, and will be inherited by subprocesses later.


From my notes with Keith, we need to run slim_test with root priviledges. So setting the environment with sudo will automatically get you root priviledge.
I investigated this further. You are correct that /opt/onbld/bin/bldenv needs sudo. But...

bldenv opens up a new shell which has root privilege, when run with sudo. So you don't need to invoke sudo when running slim_test from that new shell. Lines 89, 92,95, 101 and any others which invoke slim_test can do so without sudo.

To check this out, invoke bldenv with sudo, and observe that the prompt will change to a #.

waterloo2:/export/home/jacschwa> sudo /opt/onbld/bin/bldenv -d ./setup.sh
Build type   is  DEBUG
RELEASE      is
VERSION      is 5.11
RELEASE_DATE is April 2012

Using /bin/bash as shell.
root@waterloo2:/export/home/jacschwa# id -a
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),1(other),2(bin),3(sys),4(adm),5(uucp),6(mail),7(tty),8(lp),9(nuucp),12(daemon)
root@waterloo2:/export/home/jacschwa# exit
waterloo2:/export/home/jacschwa>

    Thanks,
    Jack

    Thanks,
