In the case of the scripts you've used, was there some way to
mechanically figure out which shell was intended? I'm thinking that
using shell-file-name is probably not the right choice, and we should
instead default to /bin/sh (which I'd expect to be the most common
case).

So only `compile' needs to know about these env-vars?
