Not sure exactly what bash (as compared to sh) specific things I might
be experiencing but from the man page:
"If  bash is invoked with the name sh, it tries to mimic the startup
behavior of historical versions of sh as closely as possible, while
conforming to the POSIX standard as well."

I didn't previously state it but I am running Lenny 5.0.7 on this
machine. I don't like it when things break unexpectedly.
