hi tom,

i have the same issue on openwrt (0.9), which is pretty old:

r...@router:~$ busybox 
BusyBox v1.4.2 (2007-08-08 08:29:39 CDT) multi-call binary
[...]

r...@router:~$ echo $SHELL
/bin/ash
r...@router:~$ ls -l `which ash`
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            7 Jan  1  2000 /bin/ash -> busybox
r...@router:~$ ls -l `which date`
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            7 Jan  1  2000 /bin/date -> busybox

r...@router:~$ echo $(date +'%b %_d %T')
Sep %_d 18:20:19
r...@router:~$ echo $(date +'%b %d %T') 
Sep 23 18:20:23



best regards

felix
