Hmpf.  I cannot reproduce this issue with this exact shell, on
i686-pc-linux-gnu.  I fail to see what could be different.
Can you send the md5sum of tests/testsuite.dir/074/script?
It should be ff69de4b9fe8396c9e86f44d858c7ce5.

Can you find out whether Slackware patches its bash somehow?

Thanks,
Ralf
