+       init.sh: don't let bash aliases interfere with tests
+       * tests/init.sh: Undefine any pre-defined aliases if the selected shell
+       is bash.  This avoids problems for those who alias standard commands to
+       non-conforming uses, like those reported in http://bugs.gnu.org/11256.
+       Suggested by Tim Mooney <Tim.Mooney@ndsu.edu>.
