One of my worries about updating our hush code would be to maintain
compatibility with all of the scripts out there that rely on whatever
odd behavior we have.

If one goes down the path of "give U-Boot a better shell", an opt-in
"hush v2" or whatever naming makes sense for re-porting something from
busybox and having a plan to keep it in sync would be the way I would
like to see it go.
