Oh!  Hm, I wonder whether we shouldn't do that, ie add SHELL = @SHELL@
to Makefile.global.in.

A quick trawl of the buildfarm logs says most of our animals compute
SHELL = /bin/sh anyway, and so would be unaffected.  There's a sizable
population that find /bin/bash though, and one active critter that finds
/bin/ksh.
