I cannot reproduce this. When I recreate your experiment, I get the results I'd expect.
Are you sure your script is using BASH? You should know that /bin/sh is ash, not BASH. Nonetheless, I cannot reproduce the problem with ash, either.
Out of curiosity, why are you using the "-L" option to "ls?" Are symbolic links involved here?
Please send "cygcheck -s -v" output as a non-inline, non-compressed text attachment.

While running a configure script under bash-2.05b, I observed a bug (?) similar to the following:$ ls configure* configure configure.in $ echo timestamp >conftest.file $ ls -Lt ./configure conftest.file conftest.file ./configure $ set X `ls -Lt ./configure conftest.file` $ echo $* X conftest.file ./configure ./configure.in So, it appears that `ls' produces different output when evaluated at the command prompt and when run under backquote. Any ideas? -- mjb
