Bash Version: 2.01
Patch Level: 1
Release Status: release
Description: A construct such as
2>&1 (echo hello)
works for Borne and Korn shell but fails for bash
reducing shell script portability.
Problem exists for 2.05 also on Solaris/Linux.
Repeat-By: bash$ 2>&1 (echo hello)
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `(e'
Thanks in advance,
- Marcus D. Gabriel
