Hi.

I ran across one paper (PDF) that discusses semantic checking in bash scripts: http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~stevez/papers/MZ07.pdf -- one of a number of hits from a Google search.

I did not see anything in the paper that was a link to the code -- 4000+ lines of OCaml -- but you could drop the authors a line to see if they would release it.

Good luck and keep us posted ... cheers, drl
