Unfortunately, there's no (?) PD implementation of the pure old-fashioned
Bourne shell that can be distributed with Linux. It's either pretend, or
don't have a /bin/sh at all, I think.
That said, I'm not entirely sure that the Bourne shell wouldn't also have
choked on that construct. My guess is it was tested with zsh and ksh,
not with a "real" sh.
