Not doing either of those here...
I do have "MAN_POSIXLY_CORRECT" so man only gives me 1 man page followed
by the section numbers of other man pages, as opposed to acting like
'less' with multiple files (i.e. next to go to next page)...
But I don't see anything that would suggest to to bash to flip into shell.
The code that the original poster pointed me at doesn't appear to
have a check for what shell it was invoked as (or what is in $0).
It seems to go off the fact that line 0 didn't have an interpreter
line specified...
I.e., what I see is:
#next line is #5033
/* Is this supposed to be an executable script?
If so, the format of the line is "#! interpreter [argument]".
A single argument is allowed. The BSD kernel restricts
the length of the entire line to 32 characters (32 bytes
being the size of the BSD exec header), but we allow 80
characters. */
