Corresponding source code
in bash 4.1, the return cmd now checks to see if it has
options and parses them as 'illegal' (not very helpful and
certainly not a usability feature). Posix says the return command takes no options.
That bash would check for them is an error.
This change broke compatibility in a number of previously
running scripts.
