The built from scratch bash.exe works better than it binary release, at
least the bug I reported with "make gnat1" is gone.

Here are a list of "gotchas" for anyone else that wants to build bash
from source:

1) LFN=y required.
2) already installed bash.exe needed.
3) run dtou on all patched builtin/*.def files.
4) set GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=/djgpp/lib/ (to get proper specs file).
5) add -DHAVE_RESOURCE -DHAVE_UNISTD_H to #define SYSDEP_CFLAGS in machines.h
6) add tminit.c and timinit.o to CSOURCES and OBJECTS, respectively, in
   cpp-Makefile.
7) add #include <limits.h> in bashline.c (to get PATH_MAX).
