Yes, this change has been frustrating to implement (see Bug#20484), because we need to wait until the new Bash is released and more widely available, as current Bash is incompatible with the change. It sounds like you have a workaround in mind for cask and ert-runner. Is there some problem in installing the workaround? Presumably they need to work in older Emacs anyway, so they already have a way to deal with this issue.
