Apart from detecting breakage earlier or at all, this also fixes a segfault
in the testsuite. The "handling" of the breakage left an invalid internal
representation in some cases.
Examples:
echo a; do echo b
echo `) echo a`
echo `date; do do do`

subevalvar() incorrectly assumed that CTLESC bytes were present iff the
expansion was quoted. However, they are present iff various processing such
as word splitting is to be done later on.
Example:
v=@$e@$e@$e@
y="${v##*"$e"}"
echo "$y"
failed if $e contained the magic CTLESC byte.

The code is inspired by NetBSD sh somewhat, but different because we
preserve the old Almquist/Bourne/Korn ability to have an unquoted part in a
quoted ${v+word}. For example, "${v-"*"}" expands to $v as a single field if
v is set, but generates filenames otherwise.
Note that this is the only place where we split text literally from the
script (the similar ${v=word} assigns to v and then expands $v). The parser
must now add additional markers to allow the expansion code to know whether
arbitrary characters in substitutions are quoted.
Example:
for i in ${$+a b c}; do echo $i; done

If double-quote state does not match, treat the '}' literally.
This ensures double-quote state remains the same before and after a
${v+-=?...} which helps with expand.c.
It makes things like
${foo+"\${bar}"}
which I have seen in the wild work as expected.

This is a syntax error.
POSIX does not say explicitly whether defining a function with the same name
as a special builtin is allowed, but it does say that it is impossible to
call such a function.
A special builtin can still be overridden with an alias.
This commit is part of a set of changes that will ensure that when
something looks like a special builtin to the parser, it is one. (Not the
other way around, as it remains possible to call a special builtin named
by a variable or other substitution.)

Add some conservative checks on function names:
- Disallow expansions or quoting characters; these can only be called via
strange control characters
- Disallow '/'; these functions cannot be called anyway, as exec.c assumes
they are pathnames
- Make the CTL* bytes work properly in function names.
These are syntax errors.
POSIX does not require us to support more than names (letters, digits and
underscores, not starting with a digit), but I do not want to restrict it
that much at this time.

This is how ksh93 treats ! within a pipeline and makes the ! in
a | ! b | c
negate the exit status of the pipeline, as if it were
a | { ! b | c; }
Side effect: something like
f() ! a
is now a syntax error, because a function definition takes a command,
not a pipeline.

Bourne shell)

immediately written into the stack after the call. Instead let the caller
manage the "space left".
Previously, growstackstr()'s assumption causes problems with STACKSTRNUL()
where we want to be able to turn a stack into a C string, and later
pretend the NUL is not there.
This fixes a bug in STACKSTRNUL() (that grew the stack) where:
1. STADJUST() called after a STACKSTRNUL() results in an improper adjust.
This can be seen in ${var%pattern} and ${var%%pattern} evaluation.
2. Memory leak in STPUTC() called after a STACKSTRNUL().

expr(1) should usually not be used as various forms of parameter expansion
and arithmetic expansion replicate most of its functionality in an easier
way.
getopt(1) should not be used at all in new code. Instead, getopts(1) or
entirely manual parsing should be used.

This makes it impossible to use locale-specific characters in variable
names.
Names containing locale-specific characters make scripts only work with the
correct locale setting. Also, they did not even work in many practical cases
because multibyte character sets such as utf-8 are not supported.
This also avoids weirdness if LC_CTYPE is changed in the middle of a script.
This Almquist extension was disabled long ago.
In pathname generation, components starting with '!!' were treated as
containing wildcards, causing unnecessary readdir (which could fail, causing
pathname generation to fail while it should not).
In our implementation and most others, a break or continue in a dot script
can break or continue a loop outside the dot script. This should cause all
further commands in the dot script to be skipped. However, cmdloop() did not
know about this and continued to parse and execute commands from the dot
script.
As described in the man page, a return in a dot script in a function returns
from the function, not only from the dot script. There was a similar issue
as with break and continue. In various other shells, the return appears to
return from the dot script, but POSIX seems not very clear about this.
The buffer for generated pathnames could be too small in some cases. It
happened to be always at least PATH_MAX long, so there was never an overflow
if the resulting pathnames would be usable.
This bug may be abused if a script subjects input from an untrusted source
to pathname generation, which a bad idea anyhow. Most shell scripts do not
work on untrusted data. secteam@ says no advisory is necessary.

This makes a difference if there is a command substitution.
To make this work, evalstring() has been changed to set exitstatus to 0 if
no command was executed (the string contained only whitespace).
Example:
eval $(false); echo $?
should print 0.
This simply sets a flag in libedit. It has a shortcoming in that it does not
apply to multi-line commands.
Note that a configuration option for this is not going to happen, but always
having this seems better than not having it. NetBSD has done the same.

If an ; or & token was followed by an EOF token, pending here-documents were
left uninitialized. Execution would crash, either in the main shell process
for literal here-documents or in a child process for expanded
here-documents. In the latter case the problem is hard to detect apart from
the core dumps and log messages.
Side effect: slightly different retries on inputs where EOF is not
persistent.
Note that tools/regression/bin/sh/parser/heredoc6.0 still causes a similar
crash in a child process. The text passed to eval is malformed and should be
rejected.
simplecmd() only handles simple commands and function definitions, neither
of which involves the ! keyword. The initial token on entry to simplecmd()
is one of the following: TSEMI, TAND, TOR, TNL, TEOF, TWORD, TRP.
Unless $! has been referenced for a particular job or $! still contains that
job's pid, forget about it after it has terminated. If $! has been
referenced, remember the job until the wait builtin has reported its
completion (either with the pid as parameter or without parameters).
In interactive mode, jobs are forgotten after termination has been reported,
which happens before primary prompts and through the jobs builtin. Even
then, though, remember a job if $! has been referenced.
This is similar to what is suggested by POSIX and should fix most memory
leaks (which also tend to cause sh to use more CPU time) with long running
scripts that start background jobs.
Caveats:
* Repeatedly referencing $! without ever doing 'wait', like
while :; do foo & echo started foo: $!; sleep 60; done
will still use a lot of memory and CPU time in the long run.
* The jobs and jobid builtins do not cause a job to be remembered for longer
like expanding $! does.

This uses the new libedit completion function with quoting support.
Unlike NetBSD, there is no 'set +o tabcomplete' option to disable
completion. I do not see any reason for such a special treatment, as
completion is rather useful and it is possible to do
bind ^I ed-insert
to disable completion and insert a tab character instead.
