I have a construct in a shell script that I had been using under
stable/8 (most recently, @r240259), but which throws an error under
stable/9 (at least as early as @r238602):

$ echo $(( ( $( date +%m ) - 1 ) / 3 + 1 ))
3
$ uname -r
8.3-PRERELEASE

$ echo $(( ( $( date +%m ) - 1 ) / 3 + 1 ))
arithmetic expression: expecting ')': " ( 09 - 1 ) / 3 + 1 "
$ uname -r
9.1-PRERELEASE

Trying bits & pieces of the above, I narrowed the issue down to:

$ echo $(( 09 + 0 ))
arithmetic expression: expecting EOF: " 09 + 0 "

while

$ echo $(( 9 + 0 ))
9
$=20

is not a problem.

Is this intentional?

(I can work around it -- e.g., by using sed to strip leading 0 from the
month number (since strftime() doesn't appear to have a format that
provides the value in a form that lacks the leading zero for values <
10).  But I'd rather not do that if I don't need to.)

Thanks!

Peace,
david
