That's probably a good idea.

What is /bin/sh on that system? In case it a symlink to /bin/bash:
what bash version is this? If it's another shell: what test(1) is it
using, e.g. a shell builtin or an external command?

Try replacing line 19 of dmenu_path with

        if test -n $UPTODATE

In case the segfault still occurs, try quoting $UPTODATE on line 19,
i.e.

        if test ! "$UPTODATE"

or

        if test -n "$UPTODATE"

Does any of this help?
