[xen-tools] [PATCH] workaround dash arithmetic expansion issues in 90-make-fstab

[Andrew Sutherland]

On Ubuntu feisty (and I believe edgy as well), /bin/sh links to dash
rather than bash.  Although bash is cool with $(( x+1 )), dash is not. 
Both are cool with $(( $x+1 )), which is what this patch does.  Although
this presumably only affects distributions using dash as their /bin/sh,
it seems wise to change it in all hooks.

The relevant launchpad bug with links to the standard and the upstream
Debian bug can be found here:

(Apply with patch -p1)
