#!/bin/sh troubles

I just uninstalled b20 and installed b20.1 and autoconf stopped working.
(Actually, it never quite worked under b20, either.)
I copied b20.1's sh.exe to /bin/sh and cp removed the execute permissions.
Chmod'ing the binary did not work either. So I moved /bin/sh to
/bin/sh.exe. Autoconf runs and spits 6 lines of control chars, each
ending with ": not found". Then it spits out
/bin/sh.exe: 11: Syntax error: ")" unexpected.
I removed it and copied bash.exe to /bin/sh.exe. Then I got this error:
/bin/sh.exe: /bin/sh.exe: cannot execute binary file
Using 'sh /usr/bin/autoconf' or 'bash /usr/bin/autoconf' works fine
though but I can't quite build a rpm that way.
Regards,
Christopher
