Have you tried the experimental bash-3.2.3-5, and exporting SHELLOPTS in
your environment with igncr specified?  Within bash, SHELLOPTS is
read-only, but reflects the current shell option settings, so you merely
need export it so that it is in the environment instead of a shell local
variable.  Outside of bash, you can manually set it (for example, in the
Windows environment).  Either way, when a new instance of bash is started,
even if by the name /bin/sh, it should recognize the SHELLOPTS settings
inherited into its environment.
