Package: bash

$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
IFS=':'
prwd='/bin/pwd'
/bin/echo I am here: `$prwd`
echo:I:am::here:::`$prwd`
$ /bin/bash test.sh
I am here: /home/gavenkoa/tmp/dep
I am here /home/gavenkoa/tmp/dep
In first echo must no print `:'.
In second echo must no print additional spaces.
Compare with Solaris sh execution output:
I am here /export/home/gavenko/tmp
I am here /export/home/gavenko/tmp

Only historical Bourne shells did take IFS into account during tokenization.
Bash never supported that and the POSIX spec does not describe such a
mechanism.
