[busybox]/bin/sh exit status

[Nils Carlson]

Sorry about that, checked the latest version now and things are working
just fine there, yes, this was an old version of busybox with a weird
config.

Sorry for bothering you. :-)

Great stuff by the way, busybox has gotten much better these last few
years.

Cheers,

Nils
