fold: tests don't pass

[dlegaultbbry]

I tried fold on both Linux and QNX and the tests fail. Not sure if it was known and if the command is actively tested. I checked if any fixes would have been published recently and found nothing.

yeah, broken on macOS too:

make: *** [test_fold] Error 1

(the fold tests aren't run by default because fold is in pending, and Android doesn't build/use fold, so we're not running the tests either.)

Sorry, traveling and I packed the wrong laptop charger. I'll try to catch up this weekend.

(The fold command itself is in pending, mostly because "columns" makes me go "unicode" so I want to convert it. Doesn't look too hard.)
