   In bash 1.04,  the hash command does not return a value indicating
   success or failure.  I would like to put the following in my .aliases:

   if hash less ; then alias more=less ; fi

   but hash always returns success.

Okay.  In the meantime, quick fix #20987:

	if [ "$(type -path less)" ]; then more=less; fi
