# Ensure an 'echo' command that does not interpret backslashes.
# Test cases:
#   echo '\n' | wc -l                 prints 1 when OK, 2 when KO
#   echo '\t' | grep t > /dev/null    has return code 0 when OK, 1 when KO
# This problem is a weird heritage from SVR4. BSD got it right (except that
# BSD echo interprets '-n' as an option, which is also not desirable).
# Nowadays the problem occurs in 4 situations:
# - in bash, when the shell option xpg_echo is set (bash >= 2.04)
#            or when it was built with --enable-usg-echo-default (bash >= 2.0)
#            or when it was built with DEFAULT_ECHO_TO_USG (bash < 2.0),
# - in zsh, when sh-emulation is not set,
# - in ksh (e.g. AIX /bin/sh and Solaris /usr/xpg4/bin/sh are ksh instances,
#           and HP-UX /bin/sh and IRIX /bin/sh behave similarly),
# - in Solaris /bin/sh and OSF/1 /bin/sh.
# We try the following workarounds:
# - for all: respawn using $CONFIG_SHELL if that is set and works.
# - for bash >= 2.04: unset the shell option xpg_echo.
# - for bash >= 2.0: define echo to a function that uses the printf built-in.
# - for bash < 2.0: define echo to a function that uses cat of a here document.
# - for zsh: turn sh-emulation on.
# - for ksh: alias echo to 'print -r'.
# - for ksh: alias echo to a function that uses cat of a here document.
# - for Solaris /bin/sh and OSF/1 /bin/sh: respawn using /bin/ksh and rely on
#   the ksh workaround.
# - otherwise: respawn using /bin/sh and rely on the workarounds.
# When respawning, we pass --no-reexec as first argument, so as to avoid
# turning this script into a fork bomb in unlucky situations.
