what exactly are you trying to do? dbconfig-load-include is for reading
in configuration files to preseed dbconfig-common when migrating from a
previously non-dbconfig-using package. if you're trying to generate a
config file based on the dbconfig-common configuration, you should be
using dbconfig-generate-include.

this is the intended behaviour, though the file should be the last
argument (i think getopt is covering for this anyway, though). what
you're saying is:
- read the input file /etc/dbconfig-common/zabbix-server-mysql.conf
- the input file is in sh format
- use the variable named "foo" in this file as the default password
again, i'm pretty sure you want to be using dbconfig-generate-include.

i'll be downgrading the bug for the moment until i'm convinced that it
really is a bug.
