I think it should be /bin/sh because standard is better than better. They are producing gratuitous system differences for no good reason. And that is also why I don't understand the move from /bin/* to /usr/bin/* and the same for lib and others. That makes the "usr" part completely useless. It would be better to move everything from /usr/bin/* up to /bin/* instead and the same for lib and the others. I think they are moving things in the wrong direction. The primary location is /bin and /usr/bin was simply the secondary overflow location. But now they have lost the primary location and only have the secondary. That is the wrong direction. But of course this is a topic for other places not here. Sigh. Bob
