BASH PATCH REPORT
                            =================

Bash-Release: 3.2
Patch-ID: bash32-003

Bug-Reported-by:        John Gatewood Ham <[email protected]>
Bug-Reference-ID:       <[email protected]>
Bug-Reference-URL:      http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2006-10/msg00045.html

Bug-Description:

When using the conditional command's `=~' operator to match regular
expressions, the parser did not skip over shell metacharacters in the
regular expression, leading to syntax errors.
