Huh, why not just SAFE_FILE_PRINTF(PROTECTED_FIFOS, "0") ?

			SAFE_CLOSE(TST_RET);

Also this seems like a setup phase, so we should probably use just
SAFE_OPEN() instead of the TST_EXP_FD() at this point.

                                  ^
We usually do this as:

#define TEST_FIFO_PATH DIR "/" TEST_FIFO

And use the TEST_FIFO_PATH instead.


Or we can just do SAFE_CHDIR(DIR) after the fork and use just the file
names.

Here as well:

		if (TST_PASS)
			SAFE_CLOSE(TST_RET)

> +		fd = TST_EXP_FD(open(CONCAT(DIR, TEST_FIFO), O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0777));

And here as well.

Here as well why the %d?

And here as well.

			       We usually shorten these to just first 12
			       characters.
