For whatever it's worth, I can't duplicate this with upstream bash 5.2.32 compiled on Debian 12 amd64. It might be a problem in the poster's libc, the poster's compiler, or some Linux distribution's patches. The poster might be using "x86_64-slackware-linux-gnu" as shown in the output, but there's no way to contact them to get confirmation or additional details (like "which version of Slackware").
