previous patches disabled it on NetBSD unconditionally. Bump PKGREVISION.

[bash205b-005]
When in a locale with multibyte characters, the readline display updater
will occasionally cause a segmentation fault when attempting to compute
the length of the first multibyte character on the line.
[bash205b-006]
When running in a locale with multibyte characters, the readline display
updater will use carriage returns when drawing the line, overwriting any
partial output already on the screen and not terminated by a newline.
[bash205b-007]
Using the vi editing mode's case-changing commands in a locale with
multibyte characters will cause garbage characters to be inserted into
the editing buffer.
Besides, export Bash's "test" target to Pkgsrc. Type "make test" to try
this.
XXX The MAINTAINER should be taken by someone really using this.
Here are some of them, excerpted from NEWS:
- New code to handle multibyte characters.
- `select' was changed to be more ksh-compatible
- There is now a bindable edit-and-execute-command readline command,
like the vi-mode `v' command, bound to C-xC-e in emacs mode.
- The shell now performs arithmetic in the largest integer size the
machine supports (intmax_t), instead of long.
- There is a new configuration option `--enable-mem-scramble', controls
bash malloc behavior of writing garbage characters into memory at
allocation and free time.
- The `complete' and `compgen' builtins now have a new `-s/-A service'
option to complete on names from /etc/services.
- `read' has a new `-u fd' option to read from a specified file descriptor.
- The expansion of $LINENO inside a shell function is only relative to the
function start if the shell is interactive -- if the shell is running a
script, $LINENO expands to the line number in the script. This is as
POSIX-2001 requires.
- The bash debugger in examples/bashdb has been modified to work with the
new DEBUG trap semantics, the command set has been made more gdb-like,
and the changes to $LINENO make debugging functions work better. Code
from Gary Vaughan.
- New [n]<&word- and [n]>&word- redirections from ksh93 -- move fds (dup
and close).
- The `echo' builtin now accepts \0xxx (zero to three octal digits following
the `0') in addition to \xxx (one to three octal digits) for SUSv3/XPG6/
POSIX.1-2001 compliance.
- Added support for DESTDIR installation root prefix, so you can do a
`make install DESTDIR=bash-root' and do easier binary packaging.
- New `-A group/-g' option to complete and compgen; does group name
completion.
- The ksh-like `ERR' trap has been added. The `ERR' trap will be run
whenever the shell would have exited if the -e option were enabled.
It is not inherited by shell functions.
- configure has a new `--enable-largefile' option, like other GNU utilities.
- `for' loops now allow empty word lists after `in', like the latest POSIX
drafts require.
- The builtin `ulimit' now takes two new non-numeric arguments: `hard',
meaning the current hard limit, and `soft', meaning the current soft
limit, in addition to `unlimited'
Also, there is a "New unwind-protect implementation from Paul
Eggert", which I believe obviates the need for two sparc64-related
patches.
