When I do this test...
$function command_not_found_handle { echo mycnf; }
$echo -e '#!/bin/bash\nlss' > test
$chmod +x test
$./test
./test: line 2: lss: command not found
$. ./test
mycnf

... I first thought you were wrong.

But then I did this:
$ echo -e '#!/bin/bash\ntype command_not_found_handle' > test
$ ./test
./test: line 2: type: command_not_found_handle: not found
$ . ./test
command_not_found_handle is a function
command_not_found_handle ()
{
    echo mycnf
}

Apparently, in a non-interactive shell, the command_not_found_handle
isn't set on my system (ubuntu).

So I hope you understand my confusion earlier...

I found in .bashrc these lines:
# If not running interactively, don't do anything
case $- in
    *i*) ;;
      *) return;;
esac

And in /etc/bash.bashrc some similar lines.

So... You actually are completely right.

Thanks for the help, Dan.
