Did you include
Code:
#!/bin/ksh

as the very first line? - I would guess "no". That will fix the problem.

or you can change
Code:
echo "$dir $( du $dir |wc -l)"

to
Code:
echo "$dir `du $dir |wc -l`"

-- those are backticks
If you cannot do that for some reason then:
You are running what shell on what UNIX os?
