I don't know about clones, but I am typing this on an SGI box where sh
_is_ the Bourne shell, and I also have access to a Solaris server where
this is true.  OTOH I don't think there is a real problem using ksh, ash,
zsh, or bash features, unless the first line of your script reads

#! /bin/sh

HTH,
