shellcomands define is broken

[Bill Shikrallah]

Using cfengine 1.6.0.a10 I am getting odd behavior when trying to define a class
based on a shellcommand run.  It seems like cfengine is reading the
define=enoughspace as a chroot directive.  The segment of the config file is as
follows

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
groups:
        patches_installed = ( "/usr/bin/test -f
/usr/private/cfengine/patches_installed" )

control:
        actionsequence = (
                shellcommands.cf_patches
        )

shellcommands:
        cf_patches.!patches_installed::
                "/usr/private/cfengine/bin/checkvar"
                        define=enoughspace

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and in the verbose output I get this output
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
cfengine:baker: Executing script
/usr/private/cfengine/bin/checkvar...(timeout=0,uid=-1,gid=-1)
(Setting umask to 77)
cfengine:baker:n/checkvar: cfengine:baker: Couldn't chroot to enoughspace
cfengine:baker:n/checkvar: cfengine:baker: chroot: No such file or directory
cfengine:baker:n/checkvar: cfengine:baker: Couldn't open pipe to command
