Is there any way to change the shell make uses to execute commands?  I'm asking
because bash from the etcdist (which I had to install as sh because of cnews)
coredumps when confronted with command lines longer than 4-5kb.  Unfortunately,
a make in /usr/src/lib/libc produces a command line longer than 5kb (for making
the profiled libc).
