It indeed fixed the issue. Thanks for the idea.

Since it's probably going to be a very common issue: I left the default
value for "Shell to use as CONFIG_SHELL" and I'm using an Ubuntu
distribution which uses dash as /bin/sh. These two things are pretty
common these days I would say :-)

Maybe "Shell to use as CONFIG_SHELL" should default to bash, or a
warning should be displayed at compile time if /bin/sh is ash or dash ?

Thanks again for the quick answer,

Thomas
