I'll check this after the TL build (which takes time, also because of
the build problems).

Actually, in the above patch, I need to use $(CONFIG_SHELL) instead of
$(SHELL), otherwise I still get an error:

The following settings are used:

If this does not correspond to your system or settings please remove the file
`config.mk' from this directory then read the INSTALL file for help.

Otherwise, simply type `gmake' again to build the library,
or `gmake refdoc' to build the API reference (the latter needs python).

and then the build fails at a later point when running libtool. and it
works when using the above patch (with CONFIG_SHELL, rather than SHELL).
