- tests: avoid a spurious failure on older debian
+ tests: avoid false ulimit failure on some systems
+
+ * tests/misc/cut-huge-range.sh: On some systems returns_ may
+ use more memory, so incorporate that in the determination
+ of the ulimit value to use. Noticed on ARMv7 with bash-4.4.12,
+ and x86_64 with bash-4.2.37.
+ Fixes http://bugs.gnu.org/26253
... which appeared to be insufficient.
