Build is asking that so it can construct its own shell scripts
appropriately... but build already sticks its tentacles into far too many
places.  I do *not* want to see it editing every shell program we supply!
(And that's about what it would take.)

Look guys, I'm sorry -- a little -- but fixing everything in C News to
catch errors by careless or incompetent sysadmins is way, way down on
my list of priorities.  It's too much work for too futile an objective.
