Your version of /bin/sh (I'm guessing something from the 6.0 series) did
not get upgraded properly by the bash postinstall script.  So that I might
be able to improve the postinstall script to try harder in your scenario,
please run the following commands and report the results to the list:

$ ls -l /bin/bash.exe /bin/sh.exe
$ getfacl /bin/bash.exe /bin/sh.exe
$ sh --version
$ bash --version

Then run the following command to fix your problem:

$ cp /bin/bash.exe /bin/sh.exe
