./demangle_unittest  # force to create lt-demangle_unittest
Passed 3 tests

PASS
./src/demangle_unittest.sh

./src/signalhandler_unittest.sh
'DieInThread' should appear in the output

I'm not sure from the project page how to submit a patch, but this avoids the 
build failure:

Actually the test only passes for x86 and x86_64 (as per documentation), so 
instead of doing :

if [ `expr match \`uname -p\` "ppc*"` ]; then
if [ `expr match \`uname -p\` "mips*"` ]; then
if [ `expr match \`uname -p\` "arm*"` ]; then
...

I think upstream should really state there intention in the test.
