what version of Solaris? what is your ${SH} set to?

I'm testing it now on Solaris 9 with SH=3D/bin/ksh (as per
defs.SunOS.mk) and these are timings from building libtool-base:

TEST=3D/usr/bin/test
% time bmake
120.29u 161.99s 4:47.22 98.2%

TEST=3Dtest
% time bmake
59.15u 51.58s 1:51.15 99.6%

pretty impressive :)

I had to tweak a couple of uses of ${TEST} and -e in bsd.pkg.mk, but
these can be abstracted (the only other platform which has a picky
built-in 'test' is IRIX 5.3 afaik).

I'm going to try building a bunch more stuff and if all is well I
think it's definitely worth the time saving :-)

grant.
