more likely it's a ksh or bash'ism that is causing the problem.

You can see the error where it says "for i in ;" so it's apparent that a 
variable expansion
didn't happen.

You can try replacing the #!/bin/sh with #!/bin/bash and see if it works 
better.

Then, you should probably fix the bash/ksh to be more portable to true 
"/bin/sh" and
propogate the changes upstream
