>From time to time, I run into shell bugs (sh or csh, mostly) when piping through several programs, such as VAR_DST=`echo $VAR_SRC | sed -e 's|xxx|yyy|' | tr -d ' '` or similar. It usually helps to divide it into several steps, making either intermediate files or intermediate variables, such as VAR_TMP=`echo $VAR_SRC | sed -e 's|xxx|yyy|'` VAR_DST=`echo $VAR_TMP | tr -d ' '` It couldn't be anything along these lines?
