Ah, true enough. :o I maybe should get out of the habit of submitting brand-new patches on the spur of the moment right before going offline for the weekend. Still, implementation-defined behavior... bash includes several things that shouldn't be builtins, though this isn't one of them. e.g. the horrible `kill` implementation which should always be disabled. coreutils/builtins clashes are so annoying. :( -- Eli Schwartz
