>Description:
        self-test of glib2 fails - this is for glib2-2.12.0, but 2.11 had
        the same problem already.

        The errror seen is this:
        ===> Testing for glib2-2.12.0
        /usr/pkg/bin/gmake  check-recursive
        ...
        gmake[5]: Leaving directory 
`/home/obj/pkg/devel/glib2/work/glib-2.12.0/tests/gobject'
        /usr/pkg/bin/gmake  check-TESTS
        gmake[5]: Entering directory 
`/home/obj/pkg/devel/glib2/work/glib-2.12.0/tests/gobject'
        arithmetic expression: syntax error: " % 256"
        gmake[5]: *** [check-TESTS] Error 2
        gmake[5]: Leaving directory 
`/home/obj/pkg/devel/glib2/work/glib-2.12.0/tests/gobject'
        gmake[4]: *** [check-am] Error 2
        gmake[4]: Leaving directory 
`/home/obj/pkg/devel/glib2/work/glib-2.12.0/tests/gobject'
        gmake[3]: *** [check] Error 2

        the problematic line is in gobject/Makefile:

        MALLOC_PERTURB_=$$(($$RANDOM % 256))

        which normally works fine in my shell (ksh), but somehow fails
        when called from Makefile.  Seems standard "make" calls /bin/sh -
        it works fine if called like this:

             make SHELL=/bin/ksh test

>How-To-Repeat:
        cd /usr/pkgsrc/devel/glib2
        make
        make test
>Fix:
        no good suggestion, maybe forcing "SHELL=/bin/ksh" in the pkg
        Makefile?
