			     BASH PATCH REPORT
			     =================

Bash-Release:	5.0
Patch-ID:	bash50-018

Bug-Reported-by:	oguzismailuysal@gmail.com
Bug-Reference-ID:
Bug-Reference-URL:	https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2019-10/msg00098.html

Bug-Description:

In certain cases, bash does not perform quoted null removal on patterns
that are used as part of word expansions such as ${parameter##pattern}, so
empty patterns are treated as non-empty.

Patch (apply with `patch -p0'):
