Use printf rather than echo -n.
On AIX, there is no -n option to the system's echo. Instead, it needs the '\c' control character. We could replace echo -n "foo" with echo -e "foo\c" but printf is recommended by most man pages. Tested on AIX 5.3, Solaris 8, and Debian. [jc: futureproofed two instances that uses variable with '%s' so later feeding different messages would not break things too easily; others are emitting literal so whoever changes the literal ought to notice more easily so they are safe.] Signed-off-by: E.
