/bin/sh on MacOSX is: $ /bin/sh --version GNU bash, version 3.2.48(1)-release (x86_64-apple-darwin10.0) Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. ...and it has been using bash as /bin/sh since 10.2 or so. Anyway, running bash as /bin/sh versus as /bin/bash likely affects whether it invokes printf as a builtin(1) command or as an external command. It's possible that invoking /usr/bin/printf instead of just printf in the scripts might resolve the issue(s).
