bash-2.05b$ alias foo='echo '
bash-2.05b$ alias bar='baz'
bash-2.05b$ alias baz='quux'
bash-2.05b$ foo bar
baz
I would have expected to see quux.
The first word of the replacement text is tested for aliases
[...] If the last character of the alias value is a blank, then
the next command word following the alias is also checked for
alias expansion.
