I'm rather sure that I installed latest releases using setup.exe.
rlversion gives 4.1. When I extract Corinna's bash-2.05-4.tar.gz the
problem comes up again. I go into my /install/src/bash-2.05 and after
"make inatall" problem is gone again.
Corinna's bash.exe has 473.600 bytes.
Self made bash.exe has 1.740.898 bytes?!
