change default behavior of 'read' builtin in ash


Hi!

  currently 'read' builtin in ash requires -e option to make it treat
backslashes as escapes. current BSD ash and SUSv2 do this by default
and use -r option to turn this special treatment off. patch attached.

after this patch, libiberty testsuite passes all test on cygwin :)
