Comment (by ezyang):
I grepped for other instances of SHELL configure being used, and found
one:
{{{
ezyang at sabre:~/Dev/ghc-clean$ ag "SHELL"
libffi/ghc.mk
92: "$(SHELL)" ./configure \
}}}
Does libffi also need to get updated? (Also, there is commented out to-do
code which should also get fixed up).
While I'm not too happy about the lack of explanation why it should be
dropped, it's pretty weird that we were doing it that way in the first
place, and `git gui blame` suggests the SHELL command has been around
since the very beginning, so if this passes validation on all platforms, I
think we should just take it.
