You can probably adapt the technique used in
[netbsd]/src/usr.bin/locate/Makefile.

Why does the script use ksh instead of /bin/sh?  I don't see anything
obvious in [openbsd]/src/usr.bin/diff3/diff3.ksh that wouldn't work in a
modern /bin/sh.

Also, I hope you plan to fix all the unsafe uses of unqoted shell
variables in the script.
