bash-1.12

-- doesn't support 
	[[  ]]

-- doesn't support an expression shift count, i.e.
	shift 3-1
   and what's worse, bash is silent about it :-(

-- doesn't allow for for more than one argument to "-f", "-r", etc. in test, i.e.
	[ -f f0 f1 ]

these last two are arguably sloppiness in ksh that ought not to work.

i've spent a fair amount of time converting ksh scripts to bash (altho
i hadn't discovered your entire list :-) and while i miss the c-ish 
syntax and semantics of [[ ]], esp. the short circuit evaluation, i figure
it's time well spent.   ksh just isn't available everywhere while bash
is quite the traveller.
