Subject: IFS=$'\xb2'
Good day, we have tried the following command "IFS='?';" (ascii translated
"0xb2") on 3 systems, Fedora, Ubuntu, and RH AS3. The code causes Seg Faults
on Fedora and Ubuntu, but seems to works on RH AS3. We also tried
"IFS=$'\xb2' ;" with the same results.
The only thing I can see is that RH3 uses Bash 2.05 while Fedora and Ubuntu
use Bash 3.0. I have uploaded the commands in a script to make it easier.
http://www.mainstreamgaming.com/ciscocmd.tgz. This issue is easy to
reproduce, as I had several people in irc trying to help me. This apparently
is a seperator sequence from Cisco routers.
I cannot reproduce this bug in 3.00.16(1)-release. I am using
Mandrive LE2005, but I compiled my own bash.
