# Test how null bytes in the output of a command are handled.  Make processes
# them using null-terminated strings, which may cut off some of the output.

# As of 2021-04-15, make handles null bytes from the child process
# inconsistently.  It's an edge case though since typically the child
# processes output text.

	# null bytes with simple spaces.
