When running under set -e, why does
eval false || echo ok
terminate the script with the execution of eval? As far as I know, the
OpenBSD sh(1) and ksh(1) shells are the only ones doing that.
If we take termination of the script as a given in the above scenario
(even if it feel a bit odd since it's in an AND-OR list), then why does
the below behave differently?
eval ! true || echo ok
This would not terminate the shell regardless of set -e or not.
Is that a bug or is it a different interpretation of the standard?
