Indeed, but I'm close to getting the build to run under toysh, but haven't
opened the array variable can of worms yet. (Which is essentially another
subsystem, since it touches so many things.) So merging this moves the goalposts
on me quite a bit again. Not against it in principle, just... inconvenient
timing.
I rewrote it to NAME=${i##*/} NAME=${NAME%\.c} which works for me and I'm
assuming fixes the speed problem for you?

Fourteen seconds?

My laptop is 10 years old and the actual build starts in 5 seconds here. I'm
guessing this is mac being weird again?

Well, the comment "alas basename -s isn't in posix yet" may have something to do
with it, but I suspect it's more that the sed invocation was added in commit
b1aaba1fc817 in 2008 back when basename in ubuntu didn't have -s yet. (It was
added to coreutils in 2012. Chasing moving targets...)
