   Release: Bash 1.04, gcc 1.36
   System: Sun-3 and Sun-4 servers and clients
	   running SunOS 4.0.3, with yellow pages.

   We recently moved from bash 1.03 to 1.04 (we *were* going to wait for
   1.05, but...) and now our rsh scripts are broken.  It appears that
   bash 1.04 does *not run any scripts* (e.g. /etc/profile) on rsh.  Is
   that true, or are we doing something wrong?

   We have an /etc/profile on the yp master (dash) that provides a minimum
   environment, but the command
	   rsh dash env
   clearly shows only the bash default environment.

   Thanks for a great shell.

Fixed in 1.05.
