+Bug-Description:
+
+   Shell variable can start with number and can even be printed with
+    'declare', as in
+        1=aaa
+        1a=bbb
+        declare -p 1 1a
+
+    But, they can't be removed, as in
+        unset 1 1a              --> ...: not a valid identifier
+
+    Bash-2.05b correctly gives me error, however.
