The test suite needs to be run on different platforms.
As it may be difficult for contributors to catch syntax
which work on GNU/linux, but is unportable, make a quick check
for the most common problems.
"sed -i", "echo -n" or "array in shell scripts"
This list is not complete, and may need to be extended

We add 1 second test execution time
Is this a useful idea at all?
