Running bash 1.04 on a uVaxII, Ultrix 2.0

I have a shell file which is read when I log in to set my functions.
This one causes a core dump;

------------------------
function distr ()
{
  local machines='watnext watsnew watsup watever watif watsleft'
  local current=`/bin/hostname`
  local curdir=$PWD
  if [ "$1" = "-m" ] ; then
    shift
    machines="$1"
    shift
  done							<-- should be fi
  if [ -z "$1" ] ; then
    echo "Usage: distr [-m machine] <file> [file...]"
    return
  fi
  for file in $* ; do
    if [ ! -f "$file" ] ; then
      echo Distr: $file: not a plain file.
    else
      for i in $machines ; do
        if [ "$i" != "$current" ] ; then
          echo cp -p $file /nfs/${i}${curdir}/$file
          cp -p $file /nfs/${i}${curdir}/$file
        fi
      done
    fi
  done
}
-----------------------------------------

I marked the error in the script, 'done' instead of 'fi'.  It should
still not produce a crash.  The output from bash is:

watsnew.2.102> bash -norc
bash$ . ./tshell
syntax error near `done'
./tshell:10: `  done'
Usage: distr [-m machine] <file> [file...]
can only `return' from a function
syntax error near `}'
./tshell:27: `}'
watsnew.2.103>
