freebsd security - Oct 2003 - chkrootkit 0.42 & 4.7-REL... "[: -ne: argument expected".... huh?

Good morning all;

Whils't running chkrootkit 0.42 on one of my 4.7-REL boxen it reported :

<snip>

	Checking 'biff'...not infected
	]: not found
	[: -ne: argument expected
	Checking 'chfn'...not infected
	]: not found
	[: -ne: argument expected

<snip>


I've been unable to locate any information ref. the " ]: not found
" and "
[: -ne: argument expected " messages.  If someone out there is familiar
with

Thanks you y'all's time.

chkrootkit is a sh-script.  These messages are errors in the script
itself, most of the time unset or empty variables.
