I tried to reproduce this, but could not.
First I make sure bash cannot be used by non-root users:
$ ls -ld /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul 14 13:04 /bin/sh -> dash
$ chmod go-rx /bin/bash
$ ls -ld /bash
-rwx------ 1 root root 672140 May 6 00:47 bash
I've checked out the the Subversion repository of Pioneers.
As a non-root user:
$ dash
$ CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/dash ./autogen.sh
$ make
All works as it should.
I get no warnings or error related to the shell.
Also, in the shell scripts for building Pioneers the command 'shift' is not
used. I would expect some of the tools for creating the ./configure script to
generate this.
Some info about the configuration used:
