now I'm confused - I thought it should b a noGo to use /bin/bash

can anybody enlighten me?
AFAIK the rule is to not use bash specific syntax (bashisms) in scripts
run with /bin/sh. If you use /bin/bash, you can use all the bashisms you
want.
Of course, sticking to strict POSIX sh is generally a good thing, but I
think we have more important things to work on just now.
