Wojciech,

Which version of Bash are you using and what is it's date? If I use Bash
that I built back in October it works, but the bash I built in December does
not work. They are both built with the the same source from 28-Aug-2002.

This would imply that somewhere between 18-Oct-2002 and 3-Dec-2002 that :-
a) A change was made to the CVS code that affected the way bash worked or
or
b) I upgraded some package and it affected the way Bash works
or
c) Something else went wrong........ Any ideas on this one.

If I run the following under Bash 2.05b just built using sources of
14-Jan-2003 I get the error, but if I run it in a cmd.exe shell it works:-
find ./. -name '*.h' -type f -print

Failure under Bash in the include directory:-
    DJ204 D:\dj204\include>bash
    bash-2.05b$ dirs
    d:/dj204/include
    bash-2.05b$ find ./. -name '*.h' -type f -print
    d:/dj204/bin/find.exe: paths must precede expression
    Usage: d:/dj204/bin/find.exe [path...] [expression]
    bash-2.05b$

CMD.EXE output:
    DJ204 D:\dj204\include>find ./. -name '*.h' -type f -print
    ././allegro.h
    ././ar.h
    ././assert.h
    ././bios.h
    ././bzlib.h
    ././coff.h
    ././conio.h

What I expect to do next is to trace through the Bash processing to see what
changes in the CVS code could have affected it. If someone can think of a
change that would affect Bash like this could they please let me know ASAP
or if you think I am wasting time by looking at Bash could you please let me
know where you think I should be looking.

If you want to try this out on your PC go and grab the Bash exe from clio in
a few hours.

Thanks,
Andrew

I had no problems building gcc321 from gcc321s.zip from simtel using
binaries from clio I grabbed on Friday and gcc321b.zip from simtel on
Win2000. Is ithis problem solely XP related ?
