So what if /bin/sh is a nastily h0rked non-POSIX implementation? Or what

No good, because we won't be using the portage-provided env binary. And
that only works for things that actually use env (which is considered
discouraged).

I could dig out a rather large list of annoying counterexamples, all of
which would need manual fixing...
