 > I still get unexpected results:
 
 You are absolutely right. My tests succeeded because I tried your
 script on -CURRENT, where this bug was fixed a few weeks ago.
 The fix to -STABLE was MFC'd last week:
 
 Revision 1.31.2.3
 Branch: RELENG_4
 
 MFC: BASESYNTAX, DQSYNTAX, SQSYNTAX and ARISYNTAX handles negative
 indexes.
      Allow those to be used to properly quote characters in the shell
      control character range.
 
 PR:		31627
 
 so updating your /bin/sh with the latest -STABLE version should resolve
 your problem.
 
 Thomas.
