System: NetBSD hilly 1.0A NetBSD 1.0A (HILLY) #106: Mon Feb 13 16:14:32 MST 1995 lon@hilly:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/HILLY i386

>Description:

	Somebody spaced out on csh vs sh scripting.  See the patch.

	NB: when this script is run by the /etc/weekly script, stderr
	is redirected to /dev/null, so the error is not apparent in
	the logs.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Try running /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb by hand.
