Sorry, I misremembered. This logic is above the line where we assign
bash to SHELL, so it runs with /bin/sh as shell. On my system, this is
dash and it behaves like bash in this regard. What shell do you use?

In any case, I think the proper fix is to simply move the SHELL= line
above here to ensure we get consistent results.
