ok, so I added app-shells/bash-2.05b-r11 to the end of

No, this is exactly the wrong way around. Portage will not install
anything you put into package.mask, so you'll want to mask everything >= 3:
>=app-shells/bash-3
The problem with the solution offered by Dominik is that the next
upgrade will want to replace the bash 2 with bash 3 again.
On the other hand, if you add the mask line and forget about it, your
system will be stuck with 2 forever.
