$ echo $BASH_VERSION 4.2.45(1)-release $ unset foo
$ foo=bar : $ echo $foo $ =============== According to POSIX/SUS issue 7, assignments for special builtins should persist. So the output should be ``bar''. Is there a setting I should turn off (or need to enable), to make this work correctly? I was able to confirm this bug for version 4.2.37(1)-release as well. (zsh 4.3.17 (i386-redhat-linux-gnu) has the same bug.) -- Wayne Pollock
