Please retest. This bash package overrides the previous one. Patch
level updated, profile.bash added to backup=() array.

Potential issue: Apparently /etc/profile is not replaced if modified.
Can someone verify if this is fixed or not? I will investigate further
as I fear it may be a pacman bug - if so, I'm guessing keeping
etc/profile in BOTH backup arrays for the time being may fix this.

filesystem changes:
   Setup for FHS compliant man pages - FS#8839
   Claim ownership of /etc/profile from bash - FS#4766
   Remove LESSCHARSET env var from /etc/profile - FS#8877

bash changes:
   Update patch level to 033
   Remove /etc/profile from package. Move bashisms to
/etc/profile.bash - FS#4766

/etc/profile was also largely revamped. Please comment on the changes
there if you'd like.
