Hi Martin,

 The script
 
 if /bin/false ; then
  echo hi

 prints hi, if there is NO NEWLINE at the end.

Could you give a simple script to reproduce this?  For example:

cat -\EOF testme.sh
if /bin/false ; then
echo hi
fi
EOF

head -c $(( $(wc -c testme.sh) - 1 )) testme.sh nonl.sh
chmod +x nonl.sh
bash ./nonl.sh

does not print hi here.

Thanks for reporting,
Jonathan

 Similarly
 
 if ! /bin/false ; then
  echo hi

 prints nothing.

I'm unable to reproduce these with the current version in
unstable. Please could you be more specific, how you execute the
scripts?

prints hi, if there is NO NEWLINE at the end.
