B20.1: test -w always returns false


I've just upgraded from build 17 to build 20.1 and am disappointed as to the
number of bugs introduced.

Try the following from bash or sh

touch newfile
chmod +w newfile
test -w newfile && echo OK
# no response
chmod -w newfile
test -w newfile && echo OK
#no response (as expected)

I'm running NT4 SP5.
