bash42-025: When used in a shell function, `declare -g -a array=(compound assignment)' creates a local variable instead of a global one. bash42-026: The `lastpipe' option does not behave correctly on machines where the open file limit is less than 256. bash42-027: When the `extglob' shell option is enabled, pattern substitution does not work correctly in the presence of multibyte characters. bash42-028: When using a word expansion for which the right hand side is evaluated, certain expansions of quoted null strings include spurious ^? characters.
should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report! Commit message: Version bump http://sources.gentoo.org/app-shells/bash/bash-4.2_p28.ebuild?rev=1.1
