Arithmetic support is actually not the issue, rather its that dash/sh doesn't support $RANDOM. The solution to this is to replace $RANDOM with $(date +%N) which is obviouslsy not all that random, but which is close enough to random for this usage. Since Jaren is in the process of making the scripts POSIX shell compliant, I think swicthing to bash is a bad idea :-). I was going to do the $RANDOM to $(date +%N) conversion after Jaren's POSIX patches were all applied.
