bash-3.2 parse error

[Greg Schafer]

Hi

ncurses-5.5 fails to build with bash-3.2 installed as sh. Here's the
distilled testcase:


cat > testcase << "EOF"
TABSIZE=`grep -v '^[ #]' $CAPS | grep -v "^$" | grep -v "^capalias"| grep -v 
"^infoalias" | wc -l`
EOF

$ bash -n testcase
testcase: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching ``'
testcase: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file


It appears to be the `#' character in between the single quotes giving the
grief. That line works with every bash version prior to 3.2. Thoughts?

Thanks
Greg
