Yes, but only with the latest port of Bash.  Please wait for some
time, and the port will be uploaded to SimTel.  It's in beta testing
at this time.

The solution is not to use SYSROOT, it is evil and was never meant to
be used for anything but very specific problems.

You shouldn't need SYSROOT in routine operation anyway.  If you have
problems that seem like they require SYSROOT, please describe these
problems here, they most certainly have other solutions.
