Bash Version: 4.1
Patch Level: 7
Release Status: release

Description:
  Cannot use "case" construction in a "for" loop in a $() sub shell.
  Should work but produces parsing error.

Repeat-By:
  echo $(for x in whatever; do case y in *) echo 42;; esac; done)

Fix:
  Probably by fixing the bash parser.
