FYI:
I have found this bug will I was running the configure script
of libiconv-1.5.1. This script invokes ./autocong/config.sub
to detect the host type. As long as LFN=y the script works.
As soon as LFN=n the script breaks with the error message:
  ./autoconf/config.sub: No such file nor directory.
If LFN=n bash will only run files that have extensions like:
.com .exe .btm .bat .sh ,etc.

Yes, bash 2.03 works **ok**. bash 2.03 does **not** have this bug.
