Hello,

when running GNU bash 1.13, calling the following function
makes FreeBSD reboot:

function test()
{
	test;
}

I stepped over this accidentally. Could anyone try this with his
resp. her setup?

My configuration is:

FreeBSD 1.0.2,
486DX40, 16 Meg, AHA1542B,
2 gig diskspace, 2*4port AST + 2 "normal" com ports.

-Rodney
