Public bug reported:
Attempting to run "q!" (yes, I was wrong-window typing vim commands into bash) causes:
q!: command not found
malloc: /usr/homes/chet/src/bash/src/parse.y:2314: assertion botched
realloc: start and end chunk sizes differ
Aborting...Connection to machinename closed.
Occurs with any single letter followed by !, or a lone !. Does not
occur with ! followed by one or more characters.
It is not the command-not-found package (removing that was my first
diagnosis attempt). I don't really know what else to try.
It happens on the two Trusty Tahr servers available to me, but not Saucy
or earlier.
** Affects: bash (Ubuntu)
