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

Bash-Release:	4.2
Patch-ID:	bash42-047

Bug-Reported-by:	Matthew Riley <mattdr@google.com>
Bug-Reference-ID:	<CA+NEdkwP3gw+gbcF5+xnR1pvcuzb1mDVzvmuJOpHRGHA9T7VFg@mail.gmail.com>
Bug-Reference-URL:	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2013-03/msg00047.html

Bug-Description:

The function that shortens pathnames for $PS1 according to the value of
$PROMPT_DIRTRIM uses memcpy on potentially-overlapping regions of memory,
when it should use memmove.  The result is garbled pathnames in prompt
strings.

Patch (apply with `patch -p0'):
