Although updating our shell scripts to this century is lower on
my priority scale, ideally I'd want to see things work with
dash, not because I do not like bash/ksh, but because it seems
the smallest minimally POSIXy shell.
Speaking of shell gotchas, I do not know what the resolution was
on the problem Merlyn was having the other day in "lost again on
syntax change - local repository?" thread, which seemed that the
failure described in <868xv86dam.fsf@blue.stonehenge.com> was
his bash mishandling an if..then..elif..else..fi chain, which
was sort of unexpected for me. I was curious but do not
remember seeing the conclusion. Pasky, what happened to that
thread?
