Bash Version: 5.1
Patch Level: 16
Release Status: release
Description:
`${var@A}' only expands to something if either var is set or is
declared with attributes; it doesn't expand to `declare -- var'
for variables that are declared but don't have any attribute and
are unset.
Shouldn't it expand to `declare -- var' and only expand to the
empty string if the variable is not declared?
