I second this, the bash 2.0 bug of handling ((.... is making life
difficult for lots of programs that call sh(linked to bash) to run
external programs, such as Netscape for all its helper applications.
Can I change the sym link of sh to ash to temporarily work around
this? I use tcsh in all my shells so sh is only used by shell scripts
and programs that come in packages.
