Me too, and I have noticed that the following doesn't work in Shell 2.06m:

   $ alias l "%i ls -lb $i"
   $ l *.c

(where 'ls' is Manx's).

In a previous version (I don't remember the rev. number), the alias would
behave as expected, listing all .c files.

With Shell2.06M, this combination no longer works, but

   $ l "*.c"

will.
