Openssl is replaced with md5sum+cut in the CVS.
It would be also nice to eliminate the Perl dependency ...

As Christoph noted, I also noticed XFS is unique in this behavior.

Done in the CVS.

I added the xfs target but left the symlink Test 6 fail because POSIX says
"The string pointed to by path1 shall be treated only as a character
string and shall not be validated as a pathname"
and
"the length of the path1 argument is longer than {SYMLINK_MAX}"
where {SYMLINK_MAX} is typically not defined on Linux or it's {PATH_MAX}.
