Hi!

Simple test case:

----8<----------------------
#!/bin/sh
foo()
{
  echo "\$?=$? \$1=$1"
}
false
foo $?
----8<----------------------

% sh foo.sh
$?=0 $1=1
% zsh foo.sh
$?=1 $1=1
% bash foo.sh
$?=1 $1=1

As you can see, the value of $? is « lost » when FreeBSD sh enters a
function.  Is this supposed to behave this way?

Thanks,
Romain
