Re: bash -c error
Eric Blake
Thanks for the backtrace. I'll see about rolling a bash 3.0-15 in the
near future. In the meantime, avoid invalid uses of time (POSIX states
that time takes a mandatory argument of the utility name to run; the
bash
extension of letting time take no arguments was the culprit here).
This was just a minimal test case.
$ bash -c time ls
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
However,
$ bash -c 'time ls'
bin cygwin.bat etc lib sbin usr
cygdrive cygwin.ico home proc tmp var
real 0m0.025s
user 0m0.046s
sys 0m0.000s
