Stripping whitepsace in front of the EOF on line 9 makes the error go
away.

Title:
bash4, here-documents, <<-EOF ... indented EOF terminator errors out.
Status in bash package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
This snippet, taken from /etc/bash.bashrc, errors out on the here document, even though the
man page states that <<-EOF should allow for the terminating EOF to be indented.
#!/bin/bash
# sudo hint
if [ ! -e "$HOME/.sudo_as_admin_successful" ] && [ ! -e "$HOME/.hushlogin" ] ; then
case " $(groups) " in *\ admin\ *)
if [ -x /usr/bin/sudo ]; then
cat <<-EOF
To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
See "man sudo_root" for details.

Error message is:
./test.sh: line 13: warning: here-document at line 6 delimited by end-of-file (wanted `EOF')
