Description Drew Moseley 2001-05-02 21:48:47 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.19-7.0.1 i686)


If I do "export -f function_foo; bash" I no longer have "function_foo" in
my environment.

I verified that this problem does not exist in bash 2.5 from ftp.gnu.org.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. function foo() { echo HI; }
2. export -f foo
3. bash
4. type -all foo

	

Actual Results:  bash: type: foo: not found


Expected Results:  foo is a function
foo () 
{ 
    echo HI
}
