FYI: I have removed the bug from CC, since this discussion seems a bit separated from it. Perhaps making all those scripts either depend on bash or transition to /bin/sh would be a good idea. This could be done through a lintian warning I think. Then people interested in working on fully transitioning to /bin/sh could just find the reverse depends of bash and the packages affected by the lintian warning.
