Hey!  This is great!  No flames or any other assorted nasty verbage....

Thanks for the info.  Yes -- i was stupid and didn't realize that /bin/test was
the culprit (and [, for that matter).  So what i did was simply create the file
that almost everyone suggested should be:

$ cat /bin/test
test $@

and things are spiffy again.

Summary:  compressdir is not buggy, my lack of /bin/test was the bug.
