 1) Do not require /bin/sh to be bash
 2) It's ok, and for "right tool for the job" -reasons often prefered,
to require that development machine has also bash installed.

 So I'm happy with how runqemu currently has #!/bin/bash shebang. It
requires bash to be present, but not necessarily as /bin/sh
