But then I tried rebuilding 5.3 the way I was doing when I noticed the problem, and from that build I can reliably reproduce the issue again. If I configure this way I see the problem again. From the source directory: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- [luca@hennessy /tmp/asdasdasd/bash-5.3]$ ./configure --disable-profiling --disable-debugger --disable-nls --disable-rpath CFLAGS='-O0 -g -fPIC' && make --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Installation is not necessary.

I cannot do it now, but later I will try to narrow down which configure option is the culprit. Am I doing something obviously illegitimate at configure time? I would say no.
