Which, of course, breaks the "use the shell of your choice" paradigm
even further, since make will break even more severely if your shell's
semantics aren't exactly the One True Approved Shell's.  (Odd, for a
time when there are even more choices of shell appearing.)

Well, sure.  The shell is just another program, right?  So you can use
some other one if you prefer, right?
