No. dash is not even installed on this system.
As a regular user:
$ realpath /bin/sh
/bin/bash
As root:
# realpath /bin/sh
/bin/bash

Right now I don't have time to do this, but some additional information
and thoughts are below.
I recently upgraded to the 0.37 package with no problems, but after
receiving email I purged and reinstalled as a test.

So I'm still getting hit by this on a new installed on this system.

I'm using LDAP for user authentication on this system in addition to
/etc/password and /etc/shadow.
monotone is in /etc/passwd as
monotone:x:118:126:Monotone,,,:/var/lib/monotone:/bin/false
Maybe using an authentication system beyond the standard password files
is causing some kind of problem during monotone-server installation.
