The eval $'...' can be left out.
$ echo $BASH_VERSION
5.0.17(1)-release
$ alias n=bla
$ n() { type $FUNCNAME; }
$ declare -pf n
bash: declare: n: not found
$ declare -pf bla
bla ()
{
type $FUNCNAME
}
It is the same on 5.1.4(1)-release.
I would have expected that n was a defined function.
But I would not have bet on it.
