Which software is free of bugs ... OK, the final TeX/Web from Donald E. Knuth. The only known I see is the the well defined bugs of the posh:
Legitimate bugs are inconsistencies between manpage and behavior, and inconsistencies between behavior and Debian policy (currently SUSv3 compliance with the following exceptions: echo -n, binary -a and -o to test, local scoping).
which is OK IMHO :)
Do you believe, software generally documents all it's bugs in the man page? BTW: Even if you ignore the bugs related to e.g. "command" and shell arithmetik, posh is approx. 40% slower than pbosh or ksh93 and still 22% slower than bash if you use it to run "configure" fom gtar. An important fact here is that posh does not have a builtin "printf".
