Hi bash developers!
I think I encountered an unusual pathological behaviour of `bash-malloc`.
I have a directory with ~500_000 files and directories in it. I tried
to iterate through it with a single `for` loop using `*` glob and
noticed that glob expansion takes more time that actual loop payload

As reported by Robert Scott in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/245066
without the change `make -j8` build of `make` occasionally fails to
buildin parallel. The simplest reproducer is:
$$ ./configure
$$ make unwind_prot.o
...

Hello bash maintainers! nixpkgs package collection likes to wrap binaies
and shell scripts to pass extra environment variables via wrappers.
One example is dejagnu's runtest:
$ cat `which runtest` | unnix
#! /<>/bash-5.2-p15/bin/bash -e
PATH=...
export PATH
exec -a "$0" "/<>/d
