shar produces bad shar file !!!

[Bruce Korb]

$ shar --version
shar - GNU sharutils 4.2.1

Produces this, in part:

# ============= cs-code.tbz ==============
if test -f 'cs-code.tbz' && test "$first_param" != -c; then
  $echo 'x -' SKIPPING 'cs-code.tbz' '(file already exists)'
else
shar: Saving cs-code.tbz (binary)
  $echo 'x -' extracting 'cs-code.tbz' '(binary)'
  sed 's/^X//' << 'SHAR_EOF' | uudecode &&

The line after the 'else' does not work so well.
Someone tell the sharutils maintainer to fix this.  :)
