Not exactly what you asked for, but works the same:
#! /bin/bash
today() {
date
}
printf "today is %s\n" "$(today)"
exit 0
It is easier to just use $(date) directly though.

For bash, I normally build a rescue shell using the option --disable-alias
When testing bash 4.0 with patches 001 through 024 applied, and this configure:
./configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--libdir=/lib \
--sbindir=/sbin \
--bindir=/bin \
--mandir=/usr/man \
--infod
put a backslash in front of the $ so that it is not substituted when
the here document read, but later when you run that code.
