That's strange, maybe the bash version is a bit old.
However, try this patch (attached:
sourceinstall-0.3-oldbash.p1.patch).

Apply it from the top source directory of
sourceinstall-0.3:

$ tar -zxvf sourceinstall-0.3.tar.gz
$ cd sourceinstall-0.3
$ patch -p1 < PATCH_FILENAME

If it does not solve, please give me the bash version
you are using, issuing:

$ /bin/bash --version

Bye,

Claudio
