Ah, I did, same effect, yes everything is linked:

$ l$ ls -l /bin /usr/bin/sh /usr/bin/bash
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       7 Feb 10  2017 /bin -> usr/bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1136624 Aug  8 07:03 /usr/bin/bash
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       4 Aug  8 07:03 /usr/bin/sh -> bash

and yes, typing ./script is so en-grained, I didn't notice it was
missing.  With that fixed:

$ MAKE=/home/netbsd/hg/tools/bin/nbmake
PATH=/home/netbsd/hg/tools/bin:$PATH ./tst
mips
$ cat tst
#!/usr/bin/sh
rundir=.
. ./sets.subr
arch_to_cpu mipsel

Ah, true.  Something in the environment affecting make.

(I'm getting all e-mail since it goes via the list)
