Hi,
I have run into a rather weird behaviour related to SIGINT, which
doesn't seem to be intended, as it's not consistent with other shells
(and is so unexpected that it took me a while to figure out what was
going wrong in my script!).

Hi,
When IFS is unset, unquoted $* undergoes word splitting as if IFS=' ',
and not the expected IFS=$' \t\n'. All the other unquoted mass
expansions ($@, array[*], array[@]) are word-split as if IFS=$'

nb_args() { echo $#; }
set -- $'a\nb'
