Aargh, how do you get Franz lisp (opus 38.91, i.e. the BSD4.2 version) to use
the Bourne shell instead of csh with *process?  The ff. does *not* work:
	(*process "/bin/sh for var in `cat foo`; do ;  look $var >> fum; done")
I've tried various escapes, parens etc. to no avail...  The manual says it
executes /bin/csh unless it can't find it, in which case it executes /bin/sh.
Surely (?) you can override this!
