Linux bootstrap, choice of shell



I am just trying out pkgsrc on Ubuntu 10.04.3. I had a go with SH=/bin/tcsh,
which passed bootstrap's shell test, but then:

===> Installing packages
===> running: (cd /scratch/prlw1/pkgsrc/pkgtools/bootstrap-mk-files && 
/scratch/prlw1/pkgsrc/bootstrap/work/bin/bmake  USE_DESTDIR=no -DPKG_PRESERVE 
MAKECONF=/scratch/prlw1/pkgsrc/bootstrap/work/mk.conf install)
Bad : modifier in $ (=).
===> Installing dependencies for bootstrap-mk-files-20111205
Bad : modifier in $ (=).
*** Error code 1

with SH=/bin/bash, all is well. (Maybe bootstrap needs another test to reject
tcsh?)

Cheers,

Patrick
