Test 62 creates a 10 MB file of zeroes[1], which is later fed into checkoutput()[2]. checkoutput() reads the file contents with[3]: contents=`cat $file` which causes bash-4.4 to print the warning from comment 0 once for each byte read. Presumably this will not fail if there is 760 MB of space available for the build log, which seems rather excessive. 1: https://github.com/logrotate/logrotate/blob/3.10.0/test/test#L1580 2: https://github.com/logrotate/logrotate/blob/3.10.0/test/test#L1605 3: https://github.com/logrotate/logrotate/blob/3.10.0/test/test#L186
Should it become necessary to implement a workaround as concerns this - and related - bugs, tr is one possible solution. However, one might consider implementing a cat workalike in pure bash. uuoc() { # A useful use of cat! while true; do [[ $1 ]] && exec <"$1" while IFS= read -r; do printf '%s\n' "$REPLY" done [[ $REPLY ]] && printf %s "$REPLY" shift || break done } Thus, contents=$(<file) # can be written as contents=$(uuoc file) contents=$(cat file1 file2) # can be written as contents=$(uuoc file1 file2) contents=$(zcat file.gz) # can be written as contents=$(zcat file.gz | uuoc) ... and so forth. This function will not induce the null byte warnings.
Chet has changed bash so that, rather than emitting a warning for every NUL byte encountered, it emits - at most - one warning to STDERR per command substitution. This change was made in 4.4_p2 (4.4_p5 is available in portage) [1]. This sensible change greatly lessens the impact of both this and bug 595276 at large. Given this change, and given that the point of this warning is that processing - and allowing bash to discard - NUL bytes in a command substitution can be a code smell, I would now recommend against applying any hacks or workarounds in lieu of bug 595276, except where there is a clear and obvious intent for (expected) NUL bytes to be ignored.

I've tested last version of logrotate (3.11.0) with bash-4.4_p5-r1 and all test pass. Please check and report any issues. Thanks for the report.
