The patch is soooo close but not quite there.

As it turns out, the standard Ubuntu install has this symlink

/bin/sh -> /bin/dash

This breaks the gstack.sh script since of course all good gnu developers
assume that
/bin/sh is linked to /bin/bash.

So,,,,

The patch needs to be modified so that the top line reads
#!/bin/bash

rather than
#!/bin/sh

That is the reason that some people are getting null output.

I'm going to guess that Greg Albrecht got fed up with the
difficult to debug sh->dash thing and replaced the one on his
test system with sh->bash some time ago.  Thus, he didn't
realize that his patch does not work on a clean Ubuntu 10.04 install.
