I would suggest trying to figure out why the bulk build fails when
/bin/sh is in use and file a pr. There have been some recent /bin/sh
changes in -current, backported to the release versions, something
might have gone unnoticed.

Nothing stops you from moving /bin/sh away and linking it to /bin/ksh
on your own machine, of course; that will open another can of worms
and is certainly not to recommend.
