The following code is out of configure:

if (echo "testing\c"; echo 1,2,3) | grep c >/dev/null; then
  # Stardent Vistra SVR4 grep lacks -e, says ghazi@caip.rutgers.edu.
  if (echo -n testing; echo 1,2,3) | sed s/-n/xn/ | grep xn >/dev/null;
then
    ac_n= ac_c='
' ac_t='        '
  else
    ac_n=-n ac_c= ac_t=
  fi
else
  ac_n= ac_c='\c' ac_t=
fi
