Thanks for looking into this. I tried to fix any existing tests I could,
but I missed ones whose prerequisites aren't met on my system.

Using {} is reasonable in general; that's how the fixes in 9ddc5ac (t:
wrap complicated expect_code users in a block, 2015-03-20) worked.
However, I think your case is somewhat simpler, in that you really just
want a big conditional to set a prereq based on whether or not a command
succeeds.

Would it make sense to convert this whole thing to just:

  test_lazy_prereq P4D_HAVE_CONFIGURABLE_RUN_MOVE_ALLOW '
        p4 configure show run.move.allow >out &&
        egrep ^run.move.allow: out
  '

?
