Second vote for more testers of Tez's patch to bash.  If people like it,
we should probably

1) include it in the arch distro (maybe in contrib?)
2) lobby for its inclusion in the bash sources, so that we can all use
it in the next release in 5 or 6 years.

The bash maintainer doesn't even keep a public CVS, and has no
intentions of doing so.  Kind of annoying.
