Keep in mind all these changes occur in -current. -current has random breakage, it happens (and it usually doesn't come from kre, who often fixes those bugs). We all make mistakes and have a development model which allows for them to be made without affecting users who care for stability. By the time it reaches a release, a change to sh will likely undergo many months of testing by people who like to use shell scripts and build 16,000 packages all with very many shell scripts.
