The thing is in which conditions this is broken and why it should be
fixed here and in this way. Yes, I admit, I have not pondered this as a
big issue - it could be also fixed replacing dash with bash on
Debian-like distros, and I guess also on not-debian. And I am quite sure
we cannot ensure compatibility with all possible shell that a customer
will try , from csh to some exotic variant. Why is this so important to
be rapidely fixed here ?

Best regards,
Stefano
