I knew I was missing something. Thanks for the correction. No more
morning reviews.

At the moment pm-qa depends on /bin/bash. While restricting ourselves
to POSIX shell constructs would be ideal, I can't commit to doing a
wholesale conversion anytime soon.

Having said that, I just confirmed with Vishal and Android doesn't
care about #!/bin/bash. It just executes the shell script using
/system/bin/sh. And we've been fixing any error reports, so it looks
like the shell is Bash-compatible.
