Bash Version: 4.4
Patch Level: 19
Release Status: release

Description:
        The special array BASH_ALIAS allows assignment/creation of aliases with
        special characters in it.
        Though these characters would error when used in an alias statement.

Repeat-By:
        BASH_ALIASES+=(['/x']=echo)
        /x echo
        ! alias /x=echo
        ## bash: alias: `/x': invalid alias name
