Thanks for your help. I hope it is ok to expand
some more on this topic.

I do not have an /etc/shells file, and I am trying to
build firefox in an xterm (but not in a chroot
environment). Nevertheless, if I type:
   echo "$SHELL" or: echo "$XTERM_SHELL",
I get the same result: /bin/bash,
which is where the bash program is located.

Have you exported SHELL or is it a local variable? Try

$ env|grep SHELL
