/bin/sh: set -e is broken again
The following commit introduced serious regression
in shell's 'set -e' since 5.1
bin/sh/eval.c
----------------------------
revision 1.99
date: 2010/06/03 16:06:48; author: christos; state: Exp; lines: +3 -3
set -e is supposed to work inside eval; skip EV_TESTED.
Try to run this code
#!/bin/sh
set -e
if eval false; then
echo 'Impossible!'
else
echo 'Ok'
fi
Current's shell unexpectedly exits at 'if' statement.
FreeBSD's fix for the same problem is here.

I didn't try it.
