 For the time being, does anyone know offhand the date of the most
 recent CVS commit in current that successfully compiles and does NOT
 have this problem?

I have a machine on which I've routinely updated -current and it shows:

$ ls -laF /bin/[
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  10880 Sep 28  2012 /bin/[*
$ ls -laF /bin/test
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  12082 Oct 15 22:25 /bin/test*

So, the last time '/bin/[' was in base.tgz was just over two years
ago.

Trawling back through source-changes@, a likely candidate for the
problem appear to be in a group of commits affecting 'mtree' on
5 October 2012, particularly:

As a result, all the sets seem to be archives of the entire DESTDIR with
most files being zero-length, differing primarily by containing a non-
zero-length instance of their own ./etc/mtree/set.foo file.  They all
contain the files that should only be in the etc.tgz set.


The various set.foo files looked very close in size (as are all of the
set archives themselves).  All of the set.foo files differ from one
another only in which set.foo file has an entry in it and that some
otherwise identical entries differ only by the word optional at the
end.  They are otherwise line-by-line identical.


This is consequence of a bug in src/distrib/sets/join.awk revision 
1.5.  join.awk revision 1.6 reverts the problematic change, so if 
you have join.awk revision 1.4 or 1.6, then you should be OK, but 
if you have revision 1.5 then you will have this problem.

 Oops, I should've just tested this- it appears that [ is a built-in on my
 current machines. I misunderstood and thought that the [ command wasn't
 included at all in the source tree due to a recent commit error (implying
 that all shell scripts that depended on it would break). Apologies.

Nevertheless it should be there. echo is also a built-in in most shells,
yet there is also a /bin/echo. The original sh had no builtins at all, I
think, and different shells have different selections of built-ins.
