rpmatch test fails with bash 2.03



I've just seen two reports (one was PR libc/1132) where tst-rpmatch
(in localedata) failed with bash 2.03.  I'd like to add at least the
appended FAQ addition to glibc.  Is there a way to not run the test
with bash 2.03?

Does anybody know if this has been reported to the bash maintainer
already?
