Description:
        BASH complains when asigning some (didn't try all of them)
non-ASCII characters to a variable with the integer attribute. Tried
with vocal letters with an acute accent, grave accent, circumflex
accent, 'Ñ', 'ñ', 'ç', 'Ç', and some more I can't remember by now. Hoped
it would just do nothing, as happens when asigning anything that is not
a number to a variable of this kind.
  Thank you for BASH.

Repeat-By:
        declare -i variable
        variable='á'
