 [ refer to original article for detailed description of problem]

The problem is that /bin/sh has chosen to become "restricted".  It did
this, believe it or not, because of the 'r' in "fixdrip_account".
This is in TFM, although the injunction RTFM would seem rude given the
peculiar character of this feature.  If you regard this feature as a bug,
you will be glad to know it is "fixed in 4.0".

You don't want to know what feature the 'x' activates...   :-}
