RE: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated [experimental]: bash-3.1-7

Hellow everyone.

I have tried to evaluate bash-3.1-7.
Some hundreds of line script fails running  dos file(ending line with \r\n) 
 script  on  text mode mount. 

-----------------
$ mount | grep tmp
D:\users\hagiwara\tmp on /tmp type user (binmode)
D:\users\hagiwara\tmp on /tmp2 type system (textmode)
$
$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 3.1.17(7)-release (i686-pc-cygwin)
Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
$
$ bash0911 --version
GNU bash, version 3.1.17(6)-release (i686-pc-cygwin)
Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc.


$ bash0911 /tmp/xxx
Processing configuration file /users/hagiwara/AA/Config
  Platforms       =
  Build tree root = /cygdrive/V
$
$ bash0911 /tmp2/xxx
Processing configuration file /users/hagiwara/AA/Config
  Platforms       =
  Build tree root = /cygdrive/V
$
$ bash /tmp/xxx
: command not found
'tmp/xxx: line 37: syntax error near unexpected token `
'tmp/xxx: line 37: `verify_environment()
$
$ bash /tmp2/xxx
/tmp2/xxx: line 377: riate: command not found
/tmp2/xxx: line 384: tart: command not found
/tmp2/xxx: line 385: art_msg: command not found
/tmp2/xxx: line 386: cess: command not found
/tmp2/xxx: line 387: ess_config: command not found
$
-----------------


I am soryy I can't attach the full script file.
The probrem hapens around the portion  below.
It's strange that some parts of comment lines are tried to execute.
-----------------
   375	#
   376	parse_parameters $*
   377	
   378	#
   379	# Verify that appropriate environment variables are set
   380	#
   381	verify_environment
   382	
   383	#
....
   389	# Output start message
   390	#
   391	output_start_msg
   392	
   393	#
   394	# Process the configuration file
   395	#
   396	process_config

) 
) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
) Hash: SHA1
) 
) A new release of bash, 3.1-7, is available for experimental use.
) 
) NOTICE:
) =======
) This version removes several outdated #defines that were once 
) necessary in older versions of cygwin, but which made bash on 
) cygwin different and slower than bash on Linux.  In the 
) process, there is a major change in behavior - bash no longer 
) forces text mode when reading scripts.  If your script 
) resides on a text mount point, you will not notice any difference.
)   If your script resides on a binary mount point, and has 
) normal unix \n line endings, you may notice a slight speedup. 
)  But if your script resides on a binary mount point, and has 
) \r\n line endings, bash will most likely encounter syntax 
) errors.  The fix is simple - use d2u to convert script files 
) residing on a binary mount point to be unix files, or if you 
) must use DOS lines, use a text mount point.  Because of this 
) change in behavior, I am marking this version experimental 
) for a while until I can gauge from mailing list traffic that 
) it is safe to promote to current.
) 
) NEWS:
) =====
) This is a minor patch release.  The only change is removing 
) outdated cygwin-specific #ifdefs that are no longer necessary 
) in light of improvements in cygwin itself.  Remember, you 
) must not have any bash or /bin/sh instances running when you 
) upgrade the bash package.  This release will work with 
) cygwin-1.5.21-1 or later.
) 
) DESCRIPTION:
) ============
) Bash is an sh-compatible shell that incorporates useful 
) features from the Korn shell (ksh) and C shell (csh).  It is 
) intended to conform to the IEEE POSIX P1003.2/ISO 9945.2 
) Shell and Tools standard.  It offers functional improvements 
) over sh for both programming and interactive use. In 
) addition, most sh scripts can be run by Bash without modification.
) 
) As of the bash 3.0 series, cygwin /bin/sh defaults to bash, 
) not ash, similar to Linux distributions.
) 
) UPDATE:
) =======
) To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin 
) now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads 
) setup.exe to your system.
) Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 
) 'bash' in the 'Base' category (it should already be selected).
) 
) DOWNLOAD:
) =========
) Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) 
) aren't allowed due to bandwidth limitations.  This means that 
) you will need to find a mirror which has this update, please 
) choose the one nearest to you:
) http://cygwin.com/mirrors.html
) 
) QUESTIONS:
) ==========
) If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin 
) mailing list is the appropriate place.
