Looks better now ...

# ./test_bpftool.sh
test_feature_dev_json (test_bpftool.TestBpftool) ... ok
test_feature_kernel (test_bpftool.TestBpftool) ... ok
test_feature_kernel_full (test_bpftool.TestBpftool) ... ok
test_feature_kernel_full_vs_not_full (test_bpftool.TestBpftool) ... ok
test_feature_macros (test_bpftool.TestBpftool) ... ok

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 5 tests in 0.253s

OK

... applied, thanks!
