# 
#     CVE-2014-7817: wordexp fails to honour WRDE_NOCMD.
#     
#     The function wordexp() fails to properly handle the WRDE_NOCMD
#     flag when processing arithmetic inputs in the form of "$((... ``))"
#     where "..." can be anything valid. The backticks in the arithmetic
#     epxression are evaluated by in a shell even if WRDE_NOCMD forbade
#     command substitution. This allows an attacker to attempt to pass
#     dangerous commands via constructs of the above form, and bypass
#     the WRDE_NOCMD flag. This patch fixes this by checking for WRDE_NOCMD
#     in exec_comm(), the only place that can execute a shell. All other
#     checks for WRDE_NOCMD are superfluous and removed.
#     
#     We expand the testsuite and add 3 new regression tests of roughly
#     the same form but with a couple of nested levels.
#     
#     On top of the 3 new tests we add fork validation to the WRDE_NOCMD
#     testing. If any forks are detected during the execution of a wordexp()
#     call with WRDE_NOCMD, the test is marked as failed. This is slightly
#     heuristic since vfork might be used in the future, but it provides a
#     higher level of assurance that no shells were executed as part of
#     command substitution with WRDE_NOCMD in effect. In addition it doesn't
#     require libpthread or libdl, instead we use the public implementation
#     namespace function __register_atfork (already part of the public ABI
#     for libpthread).
#     
#     Tested on x86_64 with no regressions.
