Under OpenIndiana I saw some differences in output which may be due to 
small issues with internationalized character sets ("locales"). 
OpenIndiana uses different internationalization code than "Solaris" 
since it was written from scratch by the Illumos project.

The bash I built (4.3.29) seems to be working fine for my purposes but 
I don't use bash as an interactive shell.
