BASH PATCH REPORT ================= Bash-Release: 5.3 Patch-ID: bash53-014 Bug-Reported-by: Grisha Levit Bug-Reference-ID: Bug-Reference-URL: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2026-06/msg00022.html Bug-Description: Bash-5.3 patch 11 included an inadvertent extra line, which this patch removes. This also takes the opportunity to improve that patch, by looking up the variable each time through the line-reading loop only if there is a callback and it is invoked.
