Package: bash
Version: 2.05b-26
Severity: normal

 Hi,

 If I run the following command line:

for x in $(cat nam); do echo "$x" >&2; echo "$x" |sed 's/\(.\)/\1\
/g' | sort | xargs | sed 's/ //g'; done > nam2

 (where the end of the first line is a quoted carriage return, and the
file nam is the output of: 

grep '^[A-Z]' /usr/share/dict/british-english-large | grep -v \' | tr a-z A-Z

 )

 then after outputting 'ALISAN' all output ceases, bash stops
responsing to inputs like ^C and ^\ and doing ps waux produces this
output (extracted):
