While we are doing the overkill routine, I'd have expected you to use

    make SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash

But I consider the results quite convincing, anyway.

What you could try to do, however, is

make SHELL=/usr/local/bin/bash -x

which would give us more verbose output.  Indepent of that, I'll try
to think about something that will work in any case.
