I'm pretty sure Solaris is one of those nasty OSes that continues to include a broken /bin/sh for "backwards compatibility." They presumably also have a non-broken shell around somewhere in the standard install. This is why redo goes through extra effort to choose a non-broken shell for running your .do scripts.

Solaris has a POSIX shell in /usr/xpg4/bin/sh. Unfortunately, there is no way to make /bin/sh POSIX-compliant, e.g. by setting an environment variable, a feature many other Unixes have.
