I get the same on Mac OS X 10.6.3 using bash. Is Andrei perhaps using another shell?


I think I remember him saying somewhere that he uses zsh, although I
can't look it up or test it on zsh at the moment.

Just tried zsh, bash, sh..

$ echo meh 1< /dev/null
zsh: no output
bash: Bad file descriptor
sh: Bad file descriptor

$ echo meh 2< /dev/null
zsh: meh
bash: meh
sh: meh
