In bash 3.0.14, the condition [[ file.txt =~ .*\\.txt\$ ]] returns TRUE but
in 3.2.39 it returns FALSE. But with the shopt option `compat31' set it also
returns TRUE. Is that reasonable? In the bash manual, `compat31' makes sense
only for quoted patterns. The string .*\\.txt\$ is considered to be quoted?
