Bash Version: 4.4
Patch Level: 18
Release Status: release

Description:
  Bash versions 4.0 thru 4.4.18 crash when declaring a variable as an
  indexed array and then as an associative array while inside of a
  function.

  Note that the opposite declaration order doesn't cause a crash, and
  neither does the same thing outside of a function. Also, other
  things can happen inside the function before the crash; it
  ultimately crashes on function return.

Repeat-By:
  Run this code in a Bash 4.x shell that you don't don't mind
  crashing. "f() { declare -a x; declare -A x; }; f"

Fix:
  Get everyone to upgrade to Bash 5.0, which is unaffected.
