Sort of to my surprise, I managed to reproduce this. I entered "does not
exist &" at the bash prompt, and the shell exited. On opening a new
Gnome terminal, I was quite surprised to find that that line made it
into my bash history (which suggests it's a fairly clean exit). I had
another succes with "pester the system &". As reported above, the shell
exit does not occur every time.
** Changed in: bash (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
