If I do the echo line twice, I get a segfault in both Bash
4.0.33(1)-release and 4.1.0(1)-release.
And you're right about being evaluated twice.

Also good. Now try converting it to lower case with ,,
andy:~$ count=0
andy:~$ echo "${days[${count}],,}, ${days[$((count++))],,},
${days[$((count++))],,}"
monday, tuesday, thursday
What happened to wednesday?
I'd rather expect this to print "monday, monday, tuesday", since you
left out the ++ in the first term.
I think the problem is that the ,, operator causes each expression to be
evaluated twice. That would explain this behaviour, and it's a bug IMHO.
