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.
