Yeah, I am running out of ideas here as well.

I have gotten reportbug to gather the standard information related to
bsh on my system, hopefully it can help in narrowing down the issue.

For the record, while my /bin/sh is linked to /bin/dash instead of
/bin/bash, I did try to relink to /bin/bash without any success - as
well as using /bin/bash as interpreter for the shell script
/usr/bin/bsh. (NB: I reverted my changes to /usr/bin/bsh between tests
by reinstalling/purge+installing it)
