Automatically select a good shell instead of relying on /bin/sh.
This includes a fairly detailed test of various known shell bugs from the autoconf docs. The idea here is that if redo works on your system, you should be able to rely on a *good* shell to run your .do files; you shouldn't have to work around zillions of bugs like autoconf does.
