Hi Jonathan,

thanks for looking into it.  Sven Joachim already pointed to the right
direction: I re-enabled LINENO support in this very upload, to check
whether things got better since #582952.  But this isn't the case.

Raphael Geissert found out that autoconf checks for LINENO support in
/bin/sh and forces the use of /bin/bash if LINENO support is absent.  If
it finds LINENO support it uses /bin/sh which then exposes all those
bashisms.

-2 in experimental disables LINENO support again.

Best Regards, Gerrit.
