I tried the Autoconf test suite with the posh (Policy-compliant Ordinary SHell, <http://packages.debian.org/de/etch/shells/posh>) supplied with Debian: it failed the "AC_CONFIG_LINKS and identical files" test due to this bug: <http://bugs.debian.org/474480>. I upgraded my posh to the latest version in Debian before the report, from 0.5.4 to 0.6.4, to ensure the bug wasn't fixed already. To my surprise, the newer posh now fails to run configure and config.status scripts because it requires that 'trap' and 'kill' use symbolic signal names. "Interesting", a shell that explicitly forbids an XSI extension, apparently on purpose. Not sure whether there is or will be serious interest in getting configure scripts to work with this shell, I just thought I share this here FYI. I don't intend to work on this.
