I figure that I'll need to upgrade gcc, rebuild bash, and then see if
there is any problem... and I doubt if there will be or others would
be seeing it also. I don't have plans at the moment to upgrade gcc.
I haven't filed any other reports because this is not really a problem
that I need solved. I'm reporting now just in case it can help you
trace something that may be affecting others in different ways.

It is for me. ;-)

I move to the directory where I'm keeping the bash that doesn't
work, a directory that is not in my path, and I
strace ./bash
and nothing happens. "^C" gets me out.

strace -otestout ./bash
hangs... nothing happens. The file "testout" is created.
I CTRL-C and end the process. Checking "testout" with pfe shows
an empty file. Checking it with Hex Edit shows only
"00000000 "
(without the quotes)
