It fails if you have exported functions in your environment. This is a bug
in `at': specifically, its assumption that every string that appears in the
environment is a valid shell identifier. This was never a valid
assumption to make, but now that exported functions use characters outside
the identifier namespace it's become more apparent. The problem is
amplified by the fact that dash is reacting poorly to whatever `at' is
trying to do to format the environment strings as assignment statements.
I believe that the upstream `at' developer is working on a fix.
