I made zsh pass quote.test, but I now get failed {mdemo,pdemo,demo}-make.test
and subsequent tests in that series, but I know the cause (more zsh quoting) and
am testing a fix.

I think everything would just magically work if I were to pull a quick `ln -f
/sw/bin/bash /bin/sh', but I'm rather afraid to do that, lest it break a startup
script and impede booting.  Have others done this without problems?

CVS HEAD.  I get a similar degree of failure from 1.5.6, but I assumed HEAD
would be the best place to hack.
