How about: "The <command>ldd</command> shell script contains Bash-specific syntax. Change its shebang line to force the script to be interpreted by Bash in case other shells (see <link href="whatever">BLFS</link>) are installed and linked to <filename class="symlink">/bin/sh</filename> later:" Obviously the markup will need to be fixed up a bit there, but hopefully you get the idea.
