Right.

First thing:

  ./t0000-basic.sh -v -i

and if that does not give sufficient clues,

  $SHELL_PATH -x ./t0000-basic.sh -v -i

(Beware, though: in some cases, the latter gives additional failures, in particular, when the stderr of a command is checked for with test_cmp instead of grep because the 'actual' results contain the shell command logs, which are not in the 'expected' results.)
