Title:
  Segmentation fault with associative arrays

Status in “bash” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If we write code like:

  function foo {
      declare -A hash
      declare hash[foo]=bar #bash crashes here
  }

  Bash crashes when calling this function.  The same exact code works as
  expected if it's not in a shell function.

  Additional details:

  $ lsb_release -rd
