What's worse is that we'd been explicitly doing an 'exec /bin/sh' to avoid

Exactly! The Linux clean slate approach is great if you are new, but a
pain if you have legacy stuff to support. I think that's why a lot of
new users/admins prefer Linux. I often hear "why does Solaris have 3
versions of such and such command?".
Certainly as an interactive shell I use bash all of the time, but we've not had
our product break on Solaris, and I quite like it that way.
