Title:
  Error in man page example of eval builtin

Status in bash package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  EXAMPLES
                foo=10 x=foo
                y='$'$x
                echo $y
                $fooeval y='$'$x
                echo $y
                10

  should be something like

  EXAMPLES
                foo=10 x=foo
                y='$'$x
                echo $y
                $foo
                eval y='$'$x
                echo $y
                10

  (echo adds newline by default)
  Besides, it should be considered, if commands and outputs could be distinguished in the example.
