Re: caller returns wrong line number in command substitution

There are no command substitutions in any of your examples.
A command substitution is what you get with $( )  (or if you
really like obsolete syntax for some reason, ``).

What you're showing is process substitution.

This has nothing to do with whether or not there is an issue
here that's worth fixing however - but bash's management of
line numbers has always been "close enough" rather than "accurate".
