> FWIW, I didn't have any problems in Bash 2.03 with these features.

Before, there was only one master function that was to be called for 
expansions. For Bash 2.03, more callable functions, which meant I had to make 
some changes to keep it working for most cases. From inspecting the code, 
there are some subtle cases where path expansion will fail. So for now 
PATH_EXPAND does nothing. A future beta will probably fix this, but until 
then you certainly have the option of not using Bash 2.04b1. Actually, you 
shouldn't use it anyway, because piping is broken thanks to a minor problem 
in the pipe emulator.
