You know you're communicating with the bash package maintainer, right? If he thinks that it makes sense to upgrade to a new version rather than rolling a new, patched older version, then you can't really use the "4.1 isn't available" argument since his point is that he could make it available. He's probably the only person who understands the tradeoffs. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
