This version fails without bash with:

When I look at build/envsetup.sh it contains way too many dependencies
on bash:

So using source and bash makes sense.
I'll update the build instructions to explicitly add bash as
a dependency.
Before migrating the build instructions to use this script we would
also need to make at least the following improvements:
- It should be possible to disable sync to enable to test patches
or work on the code locally. Ideas are welcome on how the interface
with that should look like, or if the sync should be removed from the
script completely. The idea is to make it easier for beginners to
build Replicant, and also automatize things for people building it
regularly.
- The supported machines could be deduced from the targets file in the
same directory to improve maintainability.
Denis.
