Does this discussion remind anyone else of the bash/dash switch for
/usr/bin/sh in Ubuntu?

The distro itself coped fine, but 3rd party shell scripts that used
bash extensions were a whole different story.

(No, I'm not sure what lessons, if any, we can draw from that. It just
struck me as an interesting parallel worth mentioning)

Cheers,
Nick.
