Package: bsh
Version: 2.0b4-8
Severity: important

The man page for both bsh and xbsh say that they support the command-line parameter
-classpath path.  The shell script for bsh does support it, but the shell script for
xbsh doesn't.  The xbsh shell script should have the following lines from the bsh
shell script added:

if [ "$1" = "-classpath" ]
then
  CLASSPATH="$2"
  shift 2
fi
