No, my /bin/bash is dated June 22. It says it's GNU bash, version 4.2.10(1)-release (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu) So I'm surprised that you didn't observe the bug when you were running Fedora 15. I'm also surprised you didn't observe it with Fedora 16, since the bug is in Bash -- maybe Fedora 16 has patched it? The failing diagnostic (without my recent coreutils fix) is: ./misc/sort-continue: redirection error: cannot duplicate fd: Invalid argument ./misc/sort-continue: line 33: /dev/null: Invalid argument I can reproduce the bash bug with a simple test case, with the latest stable Bash, and have reported this as a Bash bug here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2011-11/msg00062.html
