Bash-4 breaks $(<command>) syntax on FreeBSD

I just installed Bash-4 via the FreeBSD ports system. The installation
went fine. However, all of my Bash scripts that use the $(<command>)
syntax now fail with this error message:

syntax error near unexpected ')'

I have modified some of the scripts to use the older "`" tic method;
however, that is not really feasible with all of the scripts. How can
I correct this problem?
