Could you refrain from singling out "bash"?  We don't write for
"bash" specifically (and the test I ran are with "dash" before I
push things out).

Ideally, if you can try ksh93 and if you find out that ksh93 works,
then the above can be made in line with your "Subject" to mark ksh88
as broken (as opposed to other POSIX shells)?  That would help us by
reminding that running test fine with ksh93 is not a sufficient
check to make sure we didn't break ksh88 users.

All of the above would need s/ksh/&88/g; I'd think.  I just tried

	make SHELL_PATH=/bin/ksh93
        cd t && /bin/ksh93 t0008-*.sh

and this patch is not necessary for ksh93.

I didn't see him acking this exact version, so if you didn't include
this line here, I would have missed it.  Thanks.
