I just did though it's a tiny bit incomplete - doesn't handle floppy
version yet, i.e. with -DSMALL (see below for whether it's worth it)

Here's some info:  ``sh'' is the modified version with a builtin
version of test/[ ; this is on an x86 machine.

# ls -l sh /bin/sh /bin/test
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  342420 Apr  3 05:18 /bin/sh
-r-xr-xr-x  2 root  wheel   40152 Apr  3 05:18 /bin/test
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  345752 Apr  9 22:50 sh
# size sh /bin/sh /bin/test
