dash also makes configure run faster and is what ubuntu uses by
default (that is /bin/sh == dash)

time <sh> ./configure
dash: 3.5s
bash:10.5s
ksh:  3.9s

i didnt benchmark but i assume compile & fate without configure is
about the same between shells. And these are more time consuming than
configure

I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your
right to say it. -- Voltaire
