Yes, I can only see one more newline at end of the expected input in contrast
to the dump of server.input.

Looking at the diff output it looks like log/check-generated is completely
empty.

Can I somehow increase verbosity of the testing framework itself?

I've just modified libtest/lib513.c to return wrong error code. This forces
the test-suite to write out all logs ... and yes, the content of server.input
is equal in both cases. The output of server.response as well, not counting
the PID of server.

Well, there is a chance I get a SSH access to a s390 machine. Do have any
suggestion what to try in that case?

Thanks in advance!
