--- Comment #2 from Orivej Desh <orivej at gmx dot fr> ---
It turned out that it is not the stock dash, but a Gentoo-patched one that
disables usual behaviour of echo -n:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/app-shells/dash/files/dash-0.5.8.1-dumb-echo.patch
Anyway, except for "buildrun.cxx", systemtap uses "echo -n" either in scripts
with "#!/bin/bash" or in "configure" scripts (legitimately, to test echo
behaviour), so the only case where it presents a problem for Gentoo-patched
dash is in "buildrun.cxx".
