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.
