    Fix test(1) semantics
    
    Evan Gates says:
    
    After writing my own test[0] I checked and sbase already has test. I'm
    including a patch to remove test from the TODO. I also noticed that
    sbase's test handles a few specific cases incorrectly (documentation
    at [1]).
    
    test ! = foo
    When there are 3 arguments and the second is a valid binary primary
    test should perform that binary test. Only if the second argument is
    not a valid binary primary and the first is ! should test negate the
    two argument test. I've attached a patch that should fix this.
    
    test ! ! !
    test ! ! ! !
    When there are 3 arguments and the second is not a valid primary and
    the first is !, test should return the negation of the remaining two
    argument test. In this case sbase's test works correctly for ! and ! !
    but fails afterwards as it's not recursive. I don't yet have a patch
    for this but I'm working on one.
    
    Then again both of these areas may be places in which worse is better.
