Package: bash
Version: 2.05b-7
Severity: minor

I've discovered the following tilde expansion inconsistency.  Here
the behaviour of the tilde expansion depends on the name of the function.

--- a ---
alias() {
        echo "$1"
}

alias f=~

alias2() {
        echo "$1"
}

alias2 f=~

------

$ bash -o posix a
f=/home/gondolin/herbert
f=~

fixed 186994 bash/3.0-16
stop

I close that bug. According to the logs, I think this bug is fixed since
at least the 3.0.16 release. In any case, a simple test shows that this
bug is fixed.

Regards,
