You shouldn't need to set these, bootstrap should have populated your 
mk.conf with TOOLS_PLATFORM.sh pointing to mksh, and this will be used 
for the CONFIG_SHELL which should be executing configure scripts.

It's probably most helpful at this point to be very specific about where 
you are seeing issues.  If you can give exact examples of packages that 
are failing along with a full log of what they're doing that would be 
helpful.

We've done a lot of work in the past to avoid these problems, mostly 
because older Solaris also shipped with a completely broken /bin/sh, and 
so while there may be some areas where we've regressed, things should on 
the whole just work.
