Yes, that's because not all versions of bash that have associative
arrays can parse the bizarre quoting style that goes through a
sub-process and here-document that is used to fill in the parameters.

A better quoting function would be

(defun org-babel-sh-var-to-sh (var &optional sep hline)
  "Convert an elisp value to a shell variable.
Convert an elisp var into a string of shell commands specifying a
var of the same value."
  (concat "'" (replace-regexp-in-string
	       "'" "'\"'\"'"
	       (org-babel-sh-var-to-string var sep hline))
	  "'"))

(and remove the double quotes around the places where the value is going
to be used). It'd have the advantage of working with more types of
shells, but I'm not 100% certain that there aren't any corner cases.

Take a few minutes and read:
