[Buildroot] Bash failing

[Jonathan and Caroline Moore]

Still no joy and it is all rather frustrating. Aren't these things
meant to "work out of the box"? Are you able to send me the .config
you have managed to get working and tell me the buildroot snapshot you
used please?

The patch generates this error:

and trying to build a buildroot toolchain causes this error
