Description:

When using errexit and noclobber, a group command redirected to
overwrite an existing file should cause script termination but doesn't.

Repeat-By:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
#
# Why can we get "here" but not "there"?
#
shopt -s -o errexit noclobber
touch /tmp/test.out
{ echo a; } > /tmp/test.out
echo here
echo a > /tmp/test.out
echo there
----------------------------------------------------------------------
