MIME-Version:	1.0

I have the following script asdf.sh:
#!/bin/sh

if [ $# = 1 ]
then
  for v in "$@"
  do
    echo $# should be 1
    echo "$v"
  done
else
  for v in "$@"
  do
    echo $# isn\'t be 1
    ./asdf.sh "$v"
  done
fi

Under bash, the output of the script is:
5 isn't 1
5 isn't 1
5 isn't 1
5 isn't 1
5 isn't 1

Under sh, there is no output.

The output (verified on Solaris) should be:
5 isn't 1
1 should be 1
a b
5 isn't 1
1 should be 1
c d
5 isn't 1
1 should be 1
e f
5 isn't 1
1 should be 1
g
5 isn't 1
1 should be 1
h

My CYGWIN is set to "export ntea" (if that matters).

Noel
