With LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, the second output in the following sequence is
wrong:
item=(typeset text)
txt=$'-\303\274' # u-umlaut
item.text="$txt"
print -- "${item.text}" # -\303\274 (OK)
eval "arr[0]=$item"
print -- "${arr[0].text}" # -\374 (WRONG)
Whith LANG=C, both are equal and correct. The error seems to occur
whenever a character not in the [:word:] class is followed by a
multi-byte character.
Here is a variant with a different behaviour.
set -x
item=(typeset text)
#item.text=$'\303\274' # u-umlaut
item.text="-ü" # u-umlaut typed in
print -- "${item.text}" # \303 \274 (OK)
eval "arr[0]=$item"
print -- "${arr[0].text}" # \374 (ERROR)
eval "txt=${arr[0]}"
print -- $txt
Output piped through od -tx1c:
+ typeset item.text
+ item.text=$'-\374'
+ print -- $'-\374'
+ eval $'arr[0]=(\n\ttext=$\'-\\374\'\n)'
+ arr[0].text='-ü'
+ print -- '-ü'
+ eval txt=$'(\n\ttext=\'-ÿ\'\n)'
./moco[10]: eval: syntax error at line 2: `end of file' unexpected
+ print --
0000000 2d c3 bc 0a 2d fc 0a 0a
- 303 274 \n - 374 \n \n
0000010
In the line preceding the 'syntax error' message, the u-umlaut has
changed into a y with an umlaut sign.
