Because of your report IIRC

What exactly is not working? We have testsuite now, whenever we have
a good testcase, we can put it into testcases and it will be checked
for breakage everytime testsuite is run.

Just "NOT working" is not of much help.
Two-page script which is not working is better.
Two-line script which is not working is even better.

Current svn works for me:

# cat z
TESTVAR1=`echo Enabled`
echo "TESTVAR1=$TESTVAR1"
if [ "$TESTVAR1" = " Disabled" ]
then
  echo disabled
else
  echo Enabled
fi

# ./busybox hush z
TESTVAR1=Enabled
Enabled
