I've committed some changes in several scripts that had bashisms.   The 
next render of the book should create the 20130123 version of the boot 
scripts with the changes.

I also noticed that the 'test' and '[' programs are in /usr/bin.  We 
need to move those to /bin in LFS (coreutils).  Those are really only 
useful in dash.
