Package: bash
Version: 5.2.21-2
Severity: normal

I knew GNU bash had some issues with the exclamation mark,
but it’s even quoted here and still it weirdly fails:

bash$ echo "$BUILDUSERNAME:!:::::::"
bash: :: unrecognized history modifier

(This is from the pbuilder code to add the build user to
shadow, which I had to run by hand in a cowbuilder --login
chroot because I needed some manual work before the package
build and some packages refuse to be built by root.)
