 When configuring, bashdb fails with the following error message:
 {{{

 This is because the bash port was updated to 4.3 as of r118612, which was
 in response to ticket #43173, which this ticket is split off of.
 The configure issue is fixed at least as of commit
 [http://sourceforge.net/p/bashdb/code/ci/66dd836aec50a53c829e9182d8f8092b1bcb0074/
 66dd83] in upstream git, although it appears there are still other issues
 with 4.3, as more recently upstream commit
 [http://sourceforge.net/p/bashdb/code/ci/3900a7a1ba9507b366e733d30fc47f761da5029c/
 3900a7] was needed to fix the testsuite with 4.3. So it seems there are
 two possible solutions: either move the bashdb port to track upstream git
 temporarily until there is a new release, or add a bash42 port for
 compatibility and have bashdb just use that. The former might be unstable
 and lead to other issues, but the latter might just be unnecessary
 duplication, so idk which one would be better/worse... anyways, attaching
 bashdb build logs...
