Humm... I'm not so keen on this solution as it sounds like a .... IMO.

The case when env variable is not defined should be treated the same 
way. This
proves once again that both parent and child get the same results.

If your execution ends up with

clone06     0  TWARN  :  sprintf() failed: errno=???(0): Success

when TERM is not defined, this is because sprintf check is not correct :

         if ((sprintf(var, "%s", getenv("TERM") ? : "")) <= 0) {
                 tst_resm(TWARN|TERRNO, "sprintf() failed");
         }

In this case var is evaluated to "" and sprintf will return "0 byte 
read" that is quite acceptable.
Child will face an analogue situation so test will pass.

Correct patch should be to change sprintf check to :

if ((sprintf(var, "%s", getenv("TERM") ? : "")) < 0) {
                 tst_resm(TWARN|TERRNO, "sprintf() failed");
         }

I will send it asap...

Ciao,
Salvo.
