Dear bash developers,
I found an unexpected behavior when engineering some code in a callback of
DEBUG trap. The code has been distilled to expose this behavior:
### BEGIN
my_func() {
local x=$(:)
}
trap my_func DEBUG
false | true | false | true | false
echo ${PIPESTATUS[@]}
# expects 1 0 1 0 1
# gets 0 0 0 0 1
### END
Configuration Information:
Machine: x86_64
OS: linux-gnu
Compiler: gcc

This also happens on many of my OSes running bash 4.x.
I'm happy to provide further information if needed.
Thank you,
