I don't have bash-3.00.0(1) in my box to test.
If abs is right, then there is
inconsistency between the two patched version.
Repeat-By:
Run same pipe concatenated command with bogus
command inserted in bash-3.00.
0(1) and bash-3.00.16(1) then capture the PIPESTATUS
immediately after will report di
fferent return code.
