Your change from NOSHARED=yes to NOSHARED?=yes had a negative effect on
this.  NOSHARED=yes is a speed optimization for the global setting of
NOSHARED=no.  It happens to give the negative optimization for foot-
shooting that you want (but this doesn't help much when /bin/sh is
optimized for foot-shooting).
