    Problem Summary incorrect check on getconf return value
    Problem Text This failure occurs because of incorrect return value from chksupport()

    The test has the following call in it:

    if ! chksupport _POSIX_TRACE
    then
    SetResult $TET_UNTESTED
    return
    fi


    chksupport does the following check
    if ! chks_val="`getconf $chks_var 2> err$$`"
    then
    JrnlMsg "getconf error for $chks_var"
    JrnlFile err$$
    rm -rf err$$
    return 1
    fi

    if test "$chks_val" = "undefined"
    then
    JrnlMsg "$chks_var not supported"
    return 1
    fi

    The "undefined" check needs also consider the case when getconf returns
    -1. On our system <unistd.h> has the following

    #define _POSIX_TRACE (-1)

    and getconf returns

    $ getconf _POSIX_TRACE
    -1

    This matches the requirements of the SUSv3 TC2 standard, getconf stdout
    section

    Otherwise, if the specified variable is defined on the system, its value
    shall be written in the following format:

    "%d\n", <value>
