Stacy Harper reports that this script:
test() { . /tmp/bb_test; }
echo "export TEST=foo" >/tmp/bb_test
test 2>/dev/null
echo "$TEST"
correctly prints 'foo' in BusyBox 1.33 but hangs in 1.34.
Bisection suggested the problem was caused by commit a1b0d3856 (ash: add
process substitution in bash-compatibility mode). Removing the call to
unwindredir() in cmdloop() introduced in that commit makes the script
work again.
Additionally, these examples of process substitution:
while true; do cat <(echo hi); done
f() { while true; do cat <(echo hi); done }
f
result in running out of file descriptors. This is a regression from
v5 of the process substitution patch caused by changes to evalcommand()
not being transferred to v6.

Let's adopt Herbert Xu's patch, not waiting for it to reach dash git:
hush already has a similar fix.

Process substitution is a Korn shell feature that's also available
in bash and some other shells. This patch implements process
substitution in ash when ASH_BASH_COMPAT is enabled.

v2: Replace array of file descriptors with a linked list.
Include tests that were unaccountably omitted from v1.
v3: Update linked list code to the intended version.
v4: Change order of conditional code in cmdputs().
v5: Use existing popredir() mechanism to manage file descriptors.
v6: Rebase to latest version of BusyBox ash. Reduce code churn.

The original commit 3bef5d89b0 introduced an additional check
for an unset `opt_d` before doing word splitting. I'm unsure
why it's there in the first place, but the commit message also
describes a different behaviour than what -d actually does in
bash, while the code mostly does the right thing.
`opt_d` sets the line delimiter for read to stop reading and
should not affect word splitting.
Testcase:
$ echo qwe rty | { read -d Z a b; echo a:$a b:$b; }
a:qwe b:rty

It made ^C break out of the entire shell, if we aren't in PS2 mode.
