Greetings, All!
In the attached script, that I always run using dash, the expansion is
supposed to strip leading/trailing spaces from provided parameter.
The upgrade that took place after which the expansion stopped working is
libsolv: - dash-0.5.11.5-1.any -> dash-0.5.12-1.any
Downgrading to 0.5.11.5 restored the expected behavior.
I failed to find anything relevant in the dash 0.5.12 patch notes, but perhaps
community could help?

Good catch Andrey,
Looks like something in dash broke space trimming of any sort: see attached
script and logs.
I will see what upstream has to say for themselves, or about Cygwin.

Sorry Andrey,
Stupid errors in test script, didn't actually run trim3 anyway, redone, and that
and updated logs attached.
It appears the locale dependent [[:space:]] regexp no longer works but using
escapes generated by echo still does, see corrected trim3, so perhaps use those
for now, if you can, while I follow this upstream.
You may need to add escape sequences for any locale dependent spacing characters
to the space string, so please let us know if there are.

Hi Andrey,
A new test release 0.5.12-2 has been uploaded so please install and test that
behaves as expected in past releases.
The issue was caused as glibc fnmatch and glob now support locale dependent
named character classes, equivalents, etc. as in grep, so the build now defaults
to using the local libc fnmatch and glob, without any config test for which libc
or supported features.
Cygwin winsup and newlib libc fnmatch and glob do not support those locale
dependent named character classes, equivalents, etc. as in grep, so those
features are no longer provided in dash by default.
The new test release disables the build from using libc fnmatch and glob and use
those provided by dash (possibly by or from gnulib), so those classes again
appear to work as expected: see attached log.
If there are no further negative reports by this weekend, I will replace the
current stable release with this latest test release.
