I think you meant by the above that the installer could offer the user to
choose where to place the shell, and if that is the case, I agree it would
probably not worth it.

There is one thing I am confused about your response, though.  I thought
the suggestion by Peff was to build your binary with "make SHELL_PATH=sh"
(not "make SHELL_PATH=/bin/sh").  I do not know if that works or does not
work (I do not see why not, though), but in either case offering a new
customization point sounds like a separate issue.
