Description Patryk Zawadzki 2008-09-12 23:36:53 UTC 
The script has /bin/sh in shebang but uses bash ${NEXTLINE:0:1} substring syntax.

In PLD we use pdksh as /bin/sh and it does not support this substitution syntax.

We currently use $(echo $NEXTLINE| cut -c1) as a replacement.

This bug is part of pushing PLD patches upstream.

Seems like #550927 is about the same issue.
