I have simulated a rexx->hamm upgrade with APT, you might want to use
that. I can't say if there are any packaging problems but the simulations
looked okay.
Do this after installing apt
apt-get -s install bash
And see if you like the result, if you do then remove the -s and let it
go. Be -SURE- to have few more root shells open. This will get you past
the most risky part of the upgrade. You can then run apt-get
-s dist-upgrade and see if the result is okay.
Run it through 'script' and post the log to
debian-testing@lists.debian.org if anything goes wrong.
