Bash Version: 2.05b
Patch Level: 7
Release Status: released

Description:
    There is typo in 'parse.y' for FOR command:
        for i
        {
        ...
        }
    should be the same as
        for i
        do
        ...
        done
    But, the former is using $@ and the latter is using "$@" (which is the
    correct behaviour).

Repeat-By:
    set 'a b' c
    for i
    do
        echo $i
    done
    for i
    {
        echo $i
    }

Fix:
    Change
        { $$ = make_for_command ($2, add_string_to_list ("$@", (WORD_LIST 
*)NULL), $5); }
    to
        { $$ = make_for_command ($2, add_string_to_list ("\"$@\"", (WORD_LIST 
*)NULL), $5); }
