Summary: configure script should use /bin/bash not /bin/sh 


Initial Comment:
The configure script uses bash-specific syntax, while specifying /bin/sh as interpreter. This leads to issues on systems where /bin/sh is really 'sh' not a link to bash:

# ./configure 
./configure: syntax error at line 45: `keyname=$' unexpected

The only change needed to fix this issue is to change '/bin/sh' -> '/bin/bash' in the first line of the script.
