I cannot reproduce this in bash-2.05b.0(1)-release on FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE. ISTR that some of the changes between 2.05a and 2.05b had something to do with globbing, but it is not immediately obvious from the 2.05b change log, unless this is part of the internal malloc() overhaul.

Can you test this with bash-2.05b?

G'luck,
Peter
