Does /usr/xpg4/bin/sh work without the patch?

configure and build errors on Solaris 10 due to /bin/sh usage

You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu-

Status in QEMU: New
Bug description:
Running `LANG=C LC_ALL=C ./configure --prefix=... --install=/usr/ucb/install`
on Solaris 10 amd64 results in the following errors:
./configure: bad substitution
./configure: !: not found
./configure: curl-config: not found
./configure: curl-config: not found
Error: invalid trace backend
Please choose a supported trace backend.
Unfortunately it doesn't print the line numbers of the errors. It must be
somewhere after the check for `install`.
The first few can be resolved by running `bash ./configure ...` instead.
The "check if trace backend exists" hardcodes `sh "$source_path/tracetool" ...`
in configure. Replacing sh with bash makes it work.
`gmake` complains "Makefile:331: no file name for -include", which is a filter
for *.d files.
`create_config` gets the 'bad substitution' error as well. Replacing sh with
bash in rules.mak works.
etc.
To sum it up,
a) there are shell script incompatibilities with Solaris 10's /bin/sh shell, and
b) hardcoding 'sh' in configure or Makefiles seems like a bad idea.
