--- Comment #1 from Benjamin Takacs <nimaje+fbz@bureaucracy.de> ---
FreeBSDs sh doesn't do any option parsing after -c, this makes accidents due to
an unusual nammed command impossible and lead to the behaviour you observe.

sh tries to run the command ´--´ and uses ´echo $0´ providing ´arg´ as
argument.
As you don't have any command named ´--´ on your system sh reports it with its
name ´echo $0´.

That is POSIX incompatiple behaviour. I'm in favour of documenting this
incompatibility and closing this report as ´Works As Intended´
