This breaks shell scripts that were written for a POSIX shell. This is more lack of a feature than a real bug, but since the shell scripts work fine otherwise, fixing this problem will help people trying to run the POSIX test suite on FreeBSD. >How-To-Repeat: % /bin/sh $ command -v ls command: unknown option: -v $ >Fix: Should modify commandcmd() in /usr/src/bin/sh/eval.c. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
