Package: bash
Followup-For: Bug #443685

this isn't actually a bug in bash.

$ bash -o posix -c 'a=\\; echo $a\/*'
/bin /boot /cdrom /dev /emul /etc /export /home /initrd /lib /lib64 /lost+found 
/media /mnt /opt /proc /root /sbin /srv /sys /tmp /usr /var

is correct behavior.

bash 5.2.15 in debian behaves correctly.

Arguably it is a bug in dash instead.
