Nice, but it doesn't seem to work 100 % (?)

I'm quite sure that line 15 looks like this in the original commit 76759c7d:

">junk/"$Adiarnfc" &&"

But it is not shown:

     t3910: use the UTF8_NFD_TO_NFC test prereq

     Besides reusing the new test prerequisite, this fixes also the issue
     that the current output is not TAP compliant and produces the 
output "no
     reason given" [for skipping].

But line 20 seems to work better (I shortened the output by using grep):
