bump: ash variable substitution, quote slash

hi devs,

trying to replace a slash in a variable using
substitution I stumbled over this old thread:
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2010-September/073290.html

so basically this does not work (no matter how I escape)
var='a/c'; echo ${var////b}
(should output 'abc')

'git log' did not mention a change for this,
but is there maybe an idea for a fix/redesign?

thanks & bye - Bastian
