Except that .bashrc isn't used when bash run non-interactively, and
BASH_ENV is ignored when bash is called as sh which is the case in most
shell (not bash specific) scripts..

As far as I know the only reliable way to test this is to have bash
compiled with xpg_echo enabled by default.
All other methods I have found either overrides autoconf tests for
broken shells in ways making the test unsuitable for actually testing
autoconf or doesn't work for shell scripts (only interactive use).
Note: As far as I can tell the echo tests in the configure script
generated by autoconf-2.59 tests for quite many things but not \digit as
far as I can tell. I have not yet looked into the CVS version.
