Hi,

I found a bug in dash version 0.5.12 where when shifting more than ?#,
the shell exits before evaluating a logical OR operator.

To reproduce this issue:

	$ set -- 1
	$ shift 2 || printf 'meow\n'
	dash: 2: shift: can't shift that many
	$

This also occurs using if:

	$ set -- 1
	$ if shift 2; then
	> true
	> else
	> printf 'meow\n'
	> fi
	dash: 2: shift: can't shift that many
	$

Thanks,
Emma Tebibyte
