bash: update to 5.2 patch 37, bash-devel: new port

[dgilman]

Description

This doesn't have a fix for https://trac.macports.org/ticket/68638 . I made an initial attempt to cherry-pick that patch but it seemed hairy enough it's probably not worth maintaining.

But, to throw the affected a bone, I have added the bash-devel port that pulls in the latest devel branch. The fix is not in the 5.3-alpha release.

I didn't put this in as a Closes: because it doesn't really close the issue but can be persuaded if anyone feels strongly.

Type(s)

Update to bash @5.2 looks good to me. Thank you for the port update!

Some minor details on the bash-devel port in an inline comment. However, I wonder whether it is really worth to add this port, as I assume the interested audience would be quite small.

Sorry, only now I finally realized you want to add bash-devel to fix the infamous bug with gettext. Yes, that seems enough to justify adding a new port.

Date as the version number is a good idea. Not sure why it is failing on CI, I am going to try forcing it to use MP bison

[reneeotten]

why this change, is the macOS provided bison not sufficient to build it, as it apparently was in the past?

Yes, see https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/actions/runs/12228355607/job/34106491841
