Bash Version: 4.4
Patch Level: 23
Release Status: release

Description:
	A script contains a function definition followed by
	    declare -fx funcname
	but the declare(1) doesn't execute and the function
	is not exported after source'ing the file.  In addition,
	executing 'declare -p -F | grep "funcname"' does not
	produce any output (making me think that declare(1)
	isn't being executed at all).

Repeat-By:
	$ cat <<__EOF__ >/tmp/bashbug.bash
	> function myfunc {
	>     echo "Running..."
	> }
	> declare -fx myfunc
	> declare -p -F | grep "myfunc"
	> __EOF__
	$ source /tmp/bashbug.bash

	The function is now defined, but is not exported.
	And the output of the last command never appears,
	but if the same command is executed now -- at
	the interactive shell prompt -- it does show that
	'myfunc' is defined.

Fix:
	Strangely, if I create another script that sources
	the first one, then execute the declare commands in
	that second script, everything works when I source
	the second file?!
