I've temporarily mirrored the patches on the web at the following URLs:

  http://www.aarongifford.com/computers/bash205b-001
  http://www.aarongifford.com/computers/bash205b-002
  http://www.aarongifford.com/computers/bash205b-003
  http://www.aarongifford.com/computers/bash205b-004

I too have been unable to connect for various reasons to ftp.cwru.edu.  I 
tried again to download them today, but was unable to connect, regardless 
of how I set up my firewall rules to drop or reset ident stuff.

After searching elsewhere for the patches, I managed to find copies of the 
patches from the bash-bug mailing list archives.  The trick was to get my 
copy/pasted patch files to match the checksums.  They all match the FreeBSD 
ports system MD5 checksums.

Just download the above and save 'em in your /usr/ports/distfiles/ 
directory, or TEMPORARILY add the following to your port's Makefile and 
then run your make/build/portupgrade:

PATCH_SITES=    ftp://ftp.cwru.edu/pub/bash/bash-2.05b-patches/ \
                http://www.aarongifford.com/computers

I emphasize the "temporarily" because I do not intend to keep my mirror 
up-to-date in the future.  I thought it might be useful just while 
ftp.cwru.edu is inaccessable for so many FreeBSD users.

Happy BASH2 building...

Aaron out.
