Honestly the only thing better in bash 2 compared to bash 3 is the footprint (I found bash 2 to be a lot better than bash 3 on a 133 MHz box with 128 MB of RAM) that I was compiling things on ><, but then again I'm sure bash 2 is going to be full of bugs and security issues soon, since it's the non-current source branch now.
