Summary

0001396: Echo doesn't print first parameter do stdout

Description

This also applies to Busybox v1.6.0, even with busybox-1.6.0-echo.patch fix applied.

The problem I get is that the first parameter never gets printed. Some "trash" gets printed but not the first parameter. The remaining parameters on argv are printed correctly.

I managed to get it to work by replacing

arg = ++argv;
on line 36 of current svn with
arg = *++argv;

After this all worked well. I thought about asking for svn access but, since is just a really minor change, can anyone do that for me? Any comments on this?

Additional Information

.config file: I attached the config file to this report.
