Indeed. I also just found that out. > $ busybox ash -c 'echo ${x}' > ash: syntax error: missing '}' Thanks. That's a very handy testcase. busybox has gotten new maintainers in Debian and they have stripped "-O2" from CFLAGS so that it's building with "-Os" now [1]. Maybe that caused the code to be miscompiled. I hope I won't have to bisect busybox.
