bash 4.0 was released and is available in a separate branch for now. Hackers 
are encouraged to test it and report back.

How to get it:
0. cd to your grimoire clone / http://wiki.sourcemage.org/Git_Guide
1.1. If you don't have any local changes, just rewrite the master branch with:
  git pull origin +devel-bash-4:master
1.2. otherwise
  git cherry-pick 5af81414c6383
  git cherry-pick feb2998552abe
2. copy readline and bash from the repository to the live grimoire (with 
quill, by hand or other means)
3. cast readline bash
4. git reset --hard HEAD~2 # to get to the pre-merge state
5. restart your terms or run new shells to get the new bash and readline
6. report any new wierdness or just enjoy the new release. :)
