78	Defective bash in the temporary system	ken	Joe Ciccone	" If you 'su' to user clfs (or whomever) to build the temporary system, bash is defective.  This mostly passes unnoticed, but when you run the glibc testsuite you will see

{{{
scripts/check-c++-types.sh: line 38: syntax error near unexpected token `('
scripts/check-c++-types.sh: line 38: `  $cxx -S -xc++ -o - -D_GNU_SOURCE <(cat <<EOF'
make[1]: *** [/building/glibc-build/c++-types-check.out] Error 2
}}}

 We seem to have now traced this to a failed test in bash's configure:
{{{
checking whether /dev/fd is available... absent
}}}

 This test returns 'standard' if the builder is logged in, or is root, but 'absent' if the user has used 'su' to become the user who will build the clfs system.
