Description
Bash version in haiku is 2.05 while the current is 3.2.
It'd be nice an upgrade, since the 2.05 contains a few bugs like #2113.

IIRC the show stopper for this one was lack of wchar support, which should be in place now? Sorry but I've been very busy to follow everything.
Last night I wanted to test BFS with a few scripts, but ran into a few problems, like I ran out of memory and couldn't launch any other program from the shell. And I had to end it (the bash) and restart it. I didn't even bother to investigate as I'm sure its related to the version of bash.

the upgrade is done. NLS isn't activated. I expect a few bugs due to this upgrade, though not blocking.
I managed to build bash-3.2 within Haiku and it seems to work fine, beside the termcap warning similar to the ftp one when running the binary.
Anyway, anyone aware of any test I can do before going further with the Jamfile?
