    It shouldn't be.  I thought that was the gist of a discussion that was
made quite a while ago on this very list.  That bash be reduced to important
and any scripts which required a bashism in the shell script be required to,
well, require bash.  That way, I assume, a virtual sh package be made which
several different shells would provide sh, both bash and ash being in that
group.  IE, there should not be an essential shell and, if there is, most
certainly not an interactive one.
