>Release: FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE i386
>Organization:
>Environment:
3.4-STABLE as of 2.4.2000
>Description:
There have been some recent changes to /bin/sh. I have observed
the above error message with a shell script that ran fine before.
>How-To-Repeat:
Until now, I observed the errorneous behaviour only with this special
shell script. I won't post it here since it is quite long and will
only run in my environment. However, if someone ist still interested
in it, please let me now and I will send it in private mail.
I have compiled sh with -g and ran the script within it and gdb:
