My interactive shell is zsh, but I doubt whether that's relevant
because the scripts look like they are sensibly written to use
#!/bin/sh.

I also just noticed that running `./gnulib-tool --create-testdir ...'
had left a directory $TMPDIR/gnulib-python-cache-riastradh lying
around.

Yes, thanks, we should still clarify the NBCHAR_MAX business and/or
remove it, so I'll leave the PR open until we do one or the other.
