>Description:
	mail/wl looks for  /usr/pkg/bin/bash  -- which would be fine
	(well, OK) if it had a dependency upon bash, but it doesn't...

>How-To-Repeat:
	Make sure bash is not installed (using pkg_comp in an
	empty sandbox is an easy way for this) and attempt
	to build mail/wl

	Expect to see ...

Stop.
make: stopped in /pkg_comp/obj/pkgsrc/mail/wl/default/wl-2.14.0

>Fix:
	Most likely, don't use bash, but sh instead, if possible.
	if bash is really needed, add a DEPENDS line to Makefile.
