I am beginning to wonder if the problem isn't a little more involved. Did you upgrade the machine from FreeBSD 6.x to 7.x without rebuilding all your ports? With bash breaking it sounds like it was built for a 6.x box as well, which leads me to wonder how many other ports are the same way. What you also might look into is installing the misc/compat6x port. However, in any event, we need to get down to the bottom of what happened to create the situation. The most obvious thing I can think of is an upgrade of the system from 6 to 7 without a corresponding rebuild or reinstall of all ports. -Mike
