Hi Gerrit,

sorry I hadn't received your message.

Sorry for the bogus sentence above. I meant:

ash should *not* report about the "1" and "" variables above as
they are not mapped to shell variables.

The output of export -p should be suitable for reinput to the
shell, and if you enter export 1='' in the shell, you get a
syntax error.
