interp: interprets select incorrectly #969
Description
The following example shows differences between bash and gosh in interpreting select operator:
$ gosh -c 'select SEL in foo bar baz; do echo "Selected $SEL"; break; done'
Selected foo
$ bash -c 'select SEL in foo bar baz; do echo "Selected $SEL"; break; done'
1) foo
2) bar
3) baz
#? 3
Selected bazgosh selects the first option without prompt, bash prompts for option selection and correctly assigns the selected value.
