+From: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
+Date: Thu, 4 Jun 2020 21:53:55 +1000
+Subject: eval: Check nflag in evaltree instead of cmdloop
+
+This patch moves the nflag check from cmdloop into evaltree.  This
+is so that nflag will be in force even if we enter the shell via a
+path other than cmdloop, e.g., through sh -c.

-there's no requirement for `echo` to support escape sequences. bash, by default,
-does not, while dash always does.  POSIX permits either behavior:
-http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/echo.html
-
-however, since the behavior is not portable, no one should be relying on echo
-having any specific behavior.  they should use `printf` when they want an escape
-sequence.  it also makes dash smaller & faster to disable this logic entirely.
