I managed to reproduce this (on NetBSD 1.5.2), and reduced the
failure to the following script:

% cat foo.sh
set -e
for x in a; do
   BAR="foo"
   false && echo true
   echo mumble
done
% sh -x foo.sh
+ set -e
+ BAR=foo
+ false

This ought to print "mumble".  It does so if you remove the loop
or the variable assignment.  So that's definitely looks like bug
in NetBSD's sh.

Could you take care of reporting this bug wherever appropriate?
(I'm not a NetBSD user myself, and the sh man page doesn't show
any bug-report address.)
