Thinking about this a bit more, now that we know that LFS needs to be built under bash, can we not just get rid of the workaround of doing `make SHELL=/bin/bash' in jhalfs and instead just do a config check on the host instead to see what the current shell is and bail out if it's anything other than 'bash'? FYI, although Ubuntu uses /bin/dash by default, /bin/bash is available on a default install so it shouldn't be hard for a user to get a sane environment.
