Bash Version: 5.1
Patch Level: 8
Release Status: release

Description:
        coproc gives a syntax error if I try to use it with a lower case 
variable name and a compound command:
        bash: syntax error near unexpected token `}'
        bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('


Repeat-By:
        coproc bc { bc; }
        coproc bc (bc)

I can't reproduce this. What does `type bc' produce?
