Original-subject: Bash patches for 1.08.
Reposted-by: emv@msen.com (Edward Vielmetti, MSEN)

Starting with the 1.08 distribution, the bash-maintainers will be
releasing patches for fixes to bugs as they are found and fixed.

The patches are all context-style diffs, which can be applied in the
source directory of bash-1.08 with:

	patch <bash.diffs-1.08-px

where `x' is the number of this particular patch release.

Patch releases are accumulative; you should apply p1 before applying
p2.  However, I am tempted to also place a file called

	bash.diffs-1.08-newest

on prep, which is the accumulated patches, so that applying that file
to the distribution is equivalent to applying all of the patches in
order.

At any rate, some bugs have already been found and fixed; the patches
are available for anonymous ftp from prep.ai.mit.edu in the file
bash.diffs-1.08-p1.Z.
