The bootstrap file is headed

    #! /bin/sh

However, it contains lines such as 

     if ! "$SHA1SUM" -c --status "$cksum_file" < "$new_po" >  /dev/null; then

and 

     if ! test -d "$dst_dir"; then

In a standard Solaris 10 installation, /bin/sh does not recognize the
'!' command.  I had to fix this by changing the shell used by
bootstrap to /bin/bash.
