Summary:                    new upstream patch release 4.2.37
Description: 
The current testing CSWbash package is 4.2.10, while the newest patch
release is 4.2.37.

I'll admit that the bugfix I'm interested in is actually in the 29 patch
release, but it a FAQ on the bug-bash list:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2012-07/msg00013.html

This restores the pre-4.2 behavior of expanding shell variables in
pathnames.
