=== *Description* ============================================================
During SST snv_128(RE) interoperability testing we've found that
/usr/bin/chksum after 6828692 RFE: Update /usr/bin/cksum to AT&T AST "cksum"
produces different output from the former implementation.
snv_127:
bash-4.0$ cd /etc
bash-4.0$ /usr/bin/cksum ./services
1768203470 5572 ./services
snv_128:
bash-4.0# cd /etc/
bash-4.0# /usr/bin/cksum ./services
3405350139 5572 services
leading "./" is stripped.
Although 6828692 states that "it passes the VSC test suite and the usual row of
other tests." There is no warning in case the change in behavior is intentional.
It could break many things very easily e.g. find produces names with leading ./
bash-4.0$ find . -name services -print
./inet/services
./services
./avahi/services
./net/ticlts/services
./net/ticots/services
./net/ticotsord/services
