Subject: ash missing 'getopts' builtin
Message-ID: <20030519081134.B19452@ns.helixdigital.com>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5.1i

I'm not sure if this was intentional or not (being that /bin/sh is
probably used by autoconf configure scripts), but ash is missing the
'getopts' built-in command. The manual page documents it, but the
command isn't actually compiled in.

Patch file is attached; for commands that are meant to be excluded, I've
commented them out instead of using the '-j' flag (supposed to make job
control commands.)
