I cannot reproduce this, either in Debian's bash 4.4, or in bash 5.0-alpha.

wooledg:~$ exec bash-5.0-alpha
wooledg:~$ cat foo
function myfunc {
  echo "Running"
}
declare -fx myfunc
declare -p -F | grep myfunc
wooledg:~$ source ./foo
declare -fx myfunc
wooledg:~$ bash -c myfunc
Running

On my system, I see the output from "declare -p -F" upon sourcing the
file, and the function is definitely exported.  I get the same results
using Debian's bash 4.4(.12) as well.
