mapfile -t doesn't always remove the delimiter

The mapfile builtin command doesn't correctly strip delimiters (when requested with the -t option) in all cases. unicorn:~$ echo "$BASH_VERSION" 5.1.4(1)-release unicorn:~$ printf $'a\xffb\xffc\xff' | { mapfile -t -d $'\xff' array; declare -p array; } declare -a array=([0]=$'a\377' [1]=$'b\377'
