Bash Version: 4.2
Patch Level: 8
Release Status: release

Description:
        When parsing double double-quotes (i.e. """") it will be replaced by the
        value 0x7f, if there are characters before or after it. In bash 4.1 
empty
        double-quotes were simply removed.

Repeat-By:
        $ echo """"a >t
        $ hexdump -C t
        00000000  7f 61 0a                                          |.a.|
        00000003
