   With "on its own" I meant that a script using this construct is accepted   
   perfectly by bash.   
      
   #! /bin/sh   
   ./frob <<- EOF || echo "frob failed"   
        foo   
        bar   
   EOF   
      
   The above works OK.  Btw, when you try to emerge the   
   app-text/htp-1.15.ebuild you pointed me to (once unmasked), you'll see   
   that it dies during the early steps with the same message:   
      
      
   /var/tmp/portage/app-text/htp-1.15/temp/environment: line 184: syntax   
   error near unexpected token `||'   
   /var/tmp/portage/app-text/htp-1.15/temp/environment: line 184: ` || die'   
      
      
   I guess the only solution is to check the result of the test afterwards   
   with something like [ $? -eq 0 ] || die "frob failed"
