Somewhere, somehow ./configure picks bash if in PATH and uses it as
CONFIG_SHELL (I build the port by
mv /usr/local/bin/bash /usr/local/bin/back.tmp; make); why does it need
to do this when CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/sh in CONFIGURE_ENV  I can't tell.

  case $CONFIG_SHELL in
  '')
    as_save_IFS=$IFS; IFS=$PATH_SEPARATOR
for as_dir in /bin$PATH_SEPARATOR/usr/bin$PATH_SEPARATOR$PATH
do
  IFS=$as_save_IFS
  test -z "$as_dir" && as_dir=.
  for as_base in sh bash ksh sh5; do
         case $as_dir in
         /*)
           if ("$as_dir/$as_base" -c '
  as_lineno_1=$LINENO
  as_lineno_2=$LINENO
  as_lineno_3=`(expr $as_lineno_1 + 1) 2>/dev/null`
  test "x$as_lineno_1" != "x$as_lineno_2" &&
  test "x$as_lineno_3"  = "x$as_lineno_2" ') 2>/dev/null; then
             $as_unset BASH_ENV || test "${BASH_ENV+set}" != set || { BASH_ENV=; export BASH_ENV; }
             $as_unset ENV || test "${ENV+set}" != set || { ENV=; export ENV; }
             CONFIG_SHELL=$as_dir/$as_base
             export CONFIG_SHELL
             exec "$CONFIG_SHELL" "$0" ${1+"$@"}
           fi;;
         esac
       done
done
;;
  esac
