Chet was only saying the simpler, single-line, case can't be reproduced
in 3.0.  He wasn't saying the original, longer, error case can't be
reproduced;  see the start of the bug report.  So I'm re-opening this
because it seems to have been closed for the wrong reason.

I've now got access to a 3.0 on Ubuntu and the original fault still
occurs.

    $ echo $BASH_VERSION
    3.00.16(1)-release
    $ echo foo
    foo
    $ echo !$
    echo foo
    foo
    $ echo 'a
    b' !$
    a
    b !$
    $

Cheers,

Ralph.
