This was my first thought as well. I doubt bash 1.x compatibility is really a concern anymore.Well, how about we just remove them from the Bash_aliases file and provide a modern version of `repeat' in the examples/functions subdirectory.That sounds very sensible to me.
Up through bash-4.2, there were various other examples of this function
(repeat2, repeat3) in examples/functions. I had to remove them due to
copyright issues.
