Oddly enough, I can invoke the entire 'System command' from above in
bash, and it works...but even /bin/cat doesn't work from sh.

Below is the output from getfacl:
# file: /usr/bin/tbl
# owner: Administrators
# group: mkgroup_l_d
user::---
group::---
mask:rwx
other:---

# file: /bin/cat

# group: mkgroup_l_d

# file: /usr/bin/nroff
