Machine Type: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

Bash Version: 4.3
Patch Level: 48
Release Status: release

Description:
        When evaluating complex commands containing "$()" expressions, and later
        accessing arguments with !$, !* or !:<num>, results are not as expected,
        as the "$()" expression is broken into non-executable parts (see below).

        At least the manpage should clearly state such behaviour - I didn't find
        that within 10 minute search.

Repeat-By:
        $ mkdir -p /tmp/Step1
        $ ls /$(echo tmp)/Step1
        ...
        $ echo !:*
        echo /$ ( echo tmp ) /Step1
        bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('

Fix:
        None so far.
