Well, I did already explain that I know of no problem with /bin/sh
being the bourne shell, but I know of many problems (in special with make file
systems) on platforms that have bash in /bin/sh.
- unkillable sub-makes that continue to run in the background after
a foreground "make" has been aborted via ^C
- not stopping the build process after an erreneous sub make from
nested makes because of a not correclty working bash -ce "command"
are the most annoing problems on systems with bash in /bin/sh.
