In Debian bug #713805, you wrote:
> [dot ignores parameters after the script pathname]

POSIX does not specify what happens if dot is given more than one
parameter, and dash simply ignores the excess. I think it is unlikely
that dash will add the extension of temporarily setting the excess (if
not empty) as the positional parameters.

You can set the positional parameters using 'set -- <parameters>' before
sourcing the script, or you can create a function that sources the
script and gets passed the desired parameters.
