The response to the bug on the mailing list is disheartening. Report goes "set errno=0 so your error message makes sense". Didn't get a thanks, fixed.
Instead there's objections on the basis "filesystems shouldn't work like that".

The person who responded dismissively later says "I'm just another user."

Every commit since they started using git in 2009 is attributed to one person:
https://cgit.git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/bash.git/log/
I think occasionally contributed patches are applied, but this is not apparent in source control.
I was attacked on the bash mailing list a several years ago, so I don't go there anymore :-)
