So, there's nothing disturbing about this at all.
Shawn, I would appreciate an advice on the following situation then:
I'm trying to port a software called Asterisk to Solaris. The software
uses XPG4-compliant shell scripts in its build process. Those scripts
use the non-standard '#!/bin/sh' as their first line. The scripts
accidentally work on currently supported platforms, but fail on Solaris
due to the fact that they use some XPG4 stuff which is not in Solaris
/bin/sh.
So what do I do to make this work in Solaris? Changing the scripts so
that they don't use all XPG4 features but only those which Solaris's
/bin/sh happens to implement is not an option.
