 Can you provide the complete output of this 'set' command?  It seems
 to work here, on a 4.7-PRERELEASE:
 
 [roam@straylight:p2 ~]$ sh
 [\u@\h:p2 \w]\$ x=123
 [\u@\h:p2 \w]\$ echo $x
 123
 [\u@\h:p2 \w]\$ set | grep ^x
 x=123
 [\u@\h:p2 \w]\$ exit
 [roam@straylight:p2 ~]$
 
 Can you try one of the FreeBSD 4.7 release candidates, available on
 the FreeBSD FTP and WWW mirrors, and see if you can reproduce
 the problem there?
 
 G'luck,
 Peter

 This would easier understand fewer had omitted.
