Let's treat this as an independent and more urgent fix-up.  I think
it is sufficient to apply it to 2.20.x track, even though we could
go back to 2.17.x and above.

And then let's tentatively kick the "stress test" series out of
'pu', and have that series rebuilt on top of 'master' and this
patch.

I rebased my '--stress' patch series on top of
'sg/test-bash-version-fix', and the result is the same as what's at
the tip of 'sg/stress-test' at 1d1416a34b.

Yeah, sorry for not reporting what I did after pushing the
integration result out.  I ended up rebasing the stress series on
top of the updated fix with eval myself.

No problem, it still saved me from writing a cover letter :)

Note that I didn't actually test either of these patches on NetBSD,
though both "Should Work".  Carlo sent a Tested-by for v1; I hope
he'll be able to get around and test v2 as well.
