there's a stricter parser in bash now - if you have problems you should 
immediately upgrade your core toolset (lunar or theedge) - just do a 
`lin lunar`. If that fails, you should upgrade it manually as described 
on the wiki (hint: run ./install from in the tarball).

I doubt this is related but I had some weird artifacts earlier on when 
bash-3.1 was initially released. Make sure your box is up-2-date and 
rollback bash if you have any problems - then upgrade everything else 
first, and then last bash. You can use the bash-3.0-XXXX.tar.bz2 from 
the lunar iso's as a safety backup (just copy it to /var/cache/lunar and 
resurrect bash or unpack it manually).
