That's what I expected. But if you look into the script you'll
see#!/bin/sh

############################################################################

# Force use of a POSIX conformant sh 
[ "$1" != "posix_sh_forced" -a -x /bin/ksh  ]            &&
exec /bin/ksh  "$0" posix_sh_forced "$@" [ "$1" != "posix_sh_forced" -a

As you can see, /bin/sh is NOT mentioned (and thus 'not found')
Only ksh and bash seem to be supported. Strange..
Sure I can alter the startup script, but I'm not supposed to do this,
am I?
