- Update bash 4.2 to patch level 36
* Patch 25: When used in a shell function,
`declare -g -a array=(compound assignment)' creates a local
variable instead of a global one.
* Patch 26: The `lastpipe' option does not behave correctly on
machines where the open file limit is less than 256.
* Patch 27: When the `extglob' shell option is enabled, pattern
substitution does not work correctly in the presence of
multibyte characters.
* Patch 28: When using a word expansion for which the right hand
side is evaluated, certain expansions of quoted null strings
include spurious ^? characters.
* Patch 29: Bash-4.2 tries to leave completed directory names as
the user typed them, without expanding them to a full pathname.
One effect of this is that shell variables used in pathnames
being completed (e.g., $HOME) are left unchanged, but the `$'
is quoted by readline because it is a special character to the shell.
* Patch 30: When attempting to glob strings in a multibyte locale,
and those strings contain invalid multibyte characters that cause
mbsnrtowcs to return 0, the globbing code loops infinitely.
* Patch 31: A change between bash-4.1 and bash-4.2 to prevent the
readline input hook from being called too frequently had the side
effect of causing delays when reading pasted input on systems such
as Mac OS X. This patch fixes those delays while retaining the
bash-4.2 behavior.
* Patch 32: Bash-4.2 has problems with DEL characters in the
expanded value of variables used in the same quoted string as
variables that expand to nothing.
* Patch 33: Bash uses a static buffer when expanding the /dev/fd
prefix for the test and conditional commands, among other uses,
