I've encountered a similar problem, also only present under -current. I
wasn't going to bother reporting it because, well, it's -current. But I
figured I'd at least corroborate your posting.

Write a short for loop, hit the up arrow to bring it back from command
history, make a change, hit return, dump core:

x40:~> bash
bash-2.05b$ for ((i=0; $i<2; i=$i+1))

0
1
bash-2.05b$ for ((i=0; $i<2; i=$i+1)); do echo 0$i; done
Bus error (core dumped)
x40:~>

I had thought about enabling debugging symbols in the bash port and
taking a stab at debugging it, but I haven't gotten around to it.
