Commit d1a2fa2a4 (ash: catch error in arithmetic expansion in PS1)
catches all exceptions raised by expandarg().  Some exceptions, such as
the EXEXIT raised when command expansion is used, are expected:

   export PS1='$(echo "$ ")'

These should be processed normally or the shell hangs at the prompt.
