Bash-Release:	4.3

Patch-ID:	bash43-036

Bug-Reported-by:	[email protected]

Bug-Description:

When evaluating and setting integer variables, and the assignment fails to

create a variable (for example, when performing an operation on an array

variable with an invalid subscript), bash attempts to dereference a null

pointer, causing a segmentation violation.

Patch (apply with `patch -p0'):
