I'll bite.  I tried your fix this morning, and it's worked without a
problem so far.  I've just upgraded the world (had only built a kernel
earlier), and haven't done any rigorous testing, but it looks good.  I
use the AT&T ksh for BSD/OS as my standard shell, which should be a
reasonable test, but haven't got access to BSD/OS itself, so don't have
much to test beyond the AT&T tools.

Unless something goes wrong, I'll probably submit the diffs within the
next day or so.
