[Sorry if this is an FAQ.  Is an FAQ available?]

$ tee | sh -i

works and

$ tee | bash -s

works, but I can't seem to get out of:

$ tee | bash -i

This is true of ash and ksh as well.  I want to use the construct to
create a log file without screen:

$ tee -a log | bash -i 2>&1 | tee -a log

Is this behaviour a bug in bash or in sh?  Or am I leaving something
out?  Thanks.
