CI_JOB_TOKEN is 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 on AIX when referenced in script within shell executor's script.

AIX 7.2

Job in gitlab-ci.yml is

The job output:

'[' -z 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 ']'

A SLES 12 job output shows (standard gitlab-runner)

'[' -z [MASKED] ']'
git clone https://gitlab-ci-token:[MASKED]@git.microfocus.com/file-transfer/zlib.git zlib Cloning into 'zlib'...
'[' -d zlib ']'

Is the MASKING in gitlab of CI_JOB_TOKEN handled by the gitlab-python-runner?
