Hard to say why without knowing the contents of the script being called within rename ... You could run the rename script with
sh -x rename.sh
to see whats going on during execution, it will not however show inside of the script being called or any functions in place (which i see you have none in the parent script)
What version of unix is this your running ? as under Solaris
ps -ef rename.sh
is an invalid command on my box id need a |grep in there for it to work ....

rename
rename(1T) Tcl Built-In Commands rename(1T)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
rename - Rename or delete a command
SYNOPSIS
rename oldName newName
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
Rename the command that used to be called oldName so that it is now called newName. If newName is an empty string then oldName is deleted.
oldName and newName may include namespace qualifiers (names of containing namespaces). If a command is renamed into a different namespace,
future invocations of it will execute in the new namespace. The rename command returns an empty string as result.
EXAMPLE
The rename command can be used to wrap the standard Tcl commands with your own monitoring machinery. For example, you might wish to count
how often the source command is called:
rename ::source ::theRealSource
set sourceCount 0
proc ::source args {
global sourceCount
puts "called source for the [incr sourceCount]'th time"
uplevel 1 ::theRealSource $args
}
SEE ALSO
