The concern is not with shell scripts, it's with the contents of the pw_shell 
field in 'struct passwd'.

I run into this all the time, too, but with ksh.  In my case I just cp a 
static-linked version of whatever ksh variant I happened to build into /bin/ksh 
and call it a day.  It's not like the shell source code is changing every other 
week, even for bash.
