that's all news to me, and I cannot find anything online to
corroborate the claim. Is this true, is it a bash vs. Bourne FUD,
or something else?
there's no Bourne shell in CentOS anyways, /bin/sh is a symlink to
/bin/bash...
last OS I can think of with an actual Bourne shell was Solaris.
The various *BSD's have & use the actual Bourne shell ....
Which one? All the BSDs I know of use the Almquist Shell except for
OpenBSD which uses a patched version of the Public Domain Korn Shell

NetBSD 6.1.5 uses the Bourne shell by default for root logins & uses it
for the rc.d system. FreeBSD 9.3 Release has it installed because it is
needed for the rc.d system. All I can vouch for ....
