actually, I think /bin/[ is a hard link to /bin/test not a soft link to
/bin/sh.  Should be something like this:

ls -l /bin/test /bin/[
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  49152 May  9 04:34 /bin/[
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  49152 May  9 04:34 /bin/test

what is the line in your shell program which fails?  You are sure of
correct spaces and such around the []'s?
