So, what's the value of ${Z}? Unless that expands to something that
could be a valid file name you'll get an error message of some sort.

Redirection is not the right way to do it. Just do this:
$ Z="$X $Y"
$ echo $Z
XX1=YES XX2=YES YY1=YES YY2=YES

Perhaps I am misinterpreting your question; however, if I define both
${X} and ${Z} in a script prior to running your snippet, I do not
receive any erro

Dear all
This may be slightly OT, but I'm using on a FreeBSD machine. How
to convert following into bash style?
echo "${X}" > ${Z}
echo "${Y}" >> ${Z}
Exactly the same in posix standard /bin/sh or in bash. bash(1) should
be capable of running any compliant /bin/sh script directl
