It sounds similar to another known problem with older versions of the
Bourne shell, in which the shell gets confused about the name of the
"here document" file (the thing between "<<" and the end-of-file
marker).  The known problem in question was fixed in some later version
of the Bourne shell (the S5R2 version, I think), and this problem may
have been fixed there as well.

SunOS has used an S5R2-or-later version of the Bourne shell as "/bin/sh"
since SunOS 3.0; presumably, Ultrix is still using the V7-vintage BSD
version as its "/bin/sh".  If you have a System V shell as "/bin/5sh" or
somesuch, you might try using that to run your script (using the "#!"
mechanism) instead (although putting something like "/bin/5sh" or
somesuch into the "#!" line means your script won't work on systems that
don't have a program with that pathname, so your script may work only on
Ultrix if that line is there).
