This is release 3 of the port of GNU Bash 2.04 for DJGPP.
DJGPP specific changes relative to release 2.
=============================================
- Fixed a bug which caused shell function which both
- invokes an external program and assign its output
to variable,
- uses return builtin
not to work properly (or crash). Read more:

- Reverted increase of stack size and DOS transfer buffer to the 512K and 16K
respectively. The stacksize problem was with GCC own executables (for example cc1.exe).
Things are not so simple also with transfer buffer size. The real problem was that
bootstrapping GCC requires special adjusting due to running out of DOS memory space.
I cannot say which exact value we need, so I put back the default one.
The binaries were compiled from source archive (bsh204sr3.zip) on Windows Vista
Business SP2 using gcc-4.4.1, binutils-2.19, djdev203.
No other changes have been done on sources.
This release of the port consists of two packages produced using stock djdev203
and can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com and mirrors as (timestamp 2009-09-20):
