  1. Any apparently relevant information from the Bash changelog

I believe this is unrelated to any changes in Bash.

Issues and fixes

I wanted to perform a test with a special value of IFS but noticed that run always fails with IFS=_. This is caused by unquoted $pre_command in this line. The variable pre_command contains a function name including _, so the function name is split by IFS=_ by word splitting. To fix the issue, we can just quote the function name by " ... ". See c8b5bba.

I also noticed that run tries to recover the original value of IFS, but this fails to restore the original state of IFS when IFS is in the unset state before the test. It should be noted that the empty IFS and the unset IFS have different meanings: e.g. word splitting is disabled by the empty IFS while word splitting is performed with the unset IFS as if it has the default value $' \t\n'. To fix the issue, we may just declare IFS locally in the function. We may also save and restore the set/unset state of IFS as well as its value in the function. See d62e928.

Thanks for you contribution. I took the liberty to reassess the code and decided that preserving IFS is not needed anymore, due to earlier code changes.
