Re: [PATCH] c/r tests: Add futex c/r tests

Thanks, Matt, these now compile and run on s390.

But plain always returns 0 (success)?

run.sh doesn't check for the return value.  (trivially fixed as bash
wait returns its return value)

I think you also have several places where you log a FAIL when you should
probably log BROK.  But I've applied this to cr_tests plus a fix
for run.sh to check return values.  Can you send me a fix to have plain.c
log failures (unless I'm misreading and its all fine)?
