Wasn't the ancestry more like BSD ash (buggy) came before dash and Marc is running a BSD ash decendant that shared common ancestor with, not a decendant of, dash? In any case, I do not think that is relevant; does does not seem to have this IFS bug. > [2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dash/+bug/141481 None of the ones listed seems to me a bug. Rather, I see it as a sign that the reporter does not know POSIX shell well and only learned his/her shell through bash.
