The $(SHELL) setting from configure is not taken, because mk/config.mk.in contains /bin/sh hard-coded. A fix might be:
{{{ -SHELL = /bin/sh +SHELL = @SHELL@ }}}
I propose to commit this change in line 655 of mk/config.mk.in as it is still relevant for me and ghc-7.8.1-rc2. Could someone do this? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8783#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
