Fwiw i use variants of
# For heaven's sake auto-redirect on SunOS/Solaris
if [ -z "${__DKIM_KEY_CREATE_UP}" ] && [ -d /usr/xpg4 ]; then
if [ "x${SHELL}" = x ] || [ "${SHELL}" = /bin/sh ]; then
echo >&2 'SunOS/Solaris, redirecting through
$SHELL=/usr/xpg4/bin/sh'
__DKIM_KEY_CREATE_UP=y PATH=/usr/xpg4/bin:${PATH}
SHELL=/usr/xpg4/bin/sh
export __DKIM_KEY_CREATE_UP PATH SHELL
exec /usr/xpg4/bin/sh "${0}" "${@}"
