Any issues with this patch?  FC5 is due in a week.  Expect and outcry
from the new bash 3.1.7 users if the fixed cogito is not available
shortly.

Bash is not as wrong as it may seem.  Left hand side in assignments is
already a special case in earlier versions of bash, just not in the
index:

bash 3.00.16 (FC4)
$ f"oo"=bar
bash: foo=bar: command not found
$ foo["0"]=bar
$

bash 3.1.7 (FC5)
$ f"oo"=bar
bash: foo=bar: command not found
$ foo["0"]=bar
bash: "0": syntax error: operand expected (error token is ""0"")
$
