0004990: new upstream patch release 4.2.37
The current testing CSWbash package is 4.2.10, while the newest patch release is 4.2.37.

I'll admit that the bugfix I'm interested in is actually in the 29 patch release, but it a FAQ on the bug-bash list:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2012-07/msg00013.html [^]

This restores the pre-4.2 behavior of expanding shell variables in pathnames.
