I would like to urge everybody who sees cases where "/bin/sh.exe" is
required to please report them as bugs.  DJGPP ports should work if
sh.exe is anywhere on your PATH, no explicit /bin directory should be
required.  So please do NOT assume that these are ``the usual DOS
hassles''; report them here as bugs.  (Of course, a person who did the
port can decide that this bug is not serious enough to mandate a fix,
but that's another story.)
