Re: Bug report: module-init-tools: depends upon sort and uniq, which are located in /usr
(please Cc me, I'm not on the list, just found it on gmane)

For this task, maybe a uniq-without-sort would be enough. Something like
this (at least works in mksh, maybe it's portable enough for /bin/sh):

I've just tried this and it works for me, maybe I didn't cover corner
cases, but it looks okay, and the autoconf texinfo manual (section
portable shell) tells me there is no additional quoting needed either.
Bonus: the bash-only “shopt” is gone as well!
