{eat me}
We solved a similar problem with the 0200 bit set.  This fix may solve
this problem, maybe not.  Don't quote me on the line numbers either.
The file is /usr/src/cmd/sh/macro.c
 
Line 132-133	THEN	IF n
			THEN	assign( n, argp ) ;
becomes
		THEN	IF n
			THEN	trip( argp ) ;
				assign( n, argp ) ;
This strips off the 0200
before assigning the variable, or something like that.
