It's intentional, and part of the same bug fix. Word splitting is
suppressed inside [[, so the array expands to a single word ("0 0 0"), the
0s are removed, leaving " ", and that is the result the current version
uses. The code before patch 14 ran the string through word splitting,
which removed the spaces. FWIW, ksh93 returns the same result as the
patched bash, though I can't tell whether it's doing the exact same thing
internally.
