I've tested these patches with bash, pdksh, and dash. dash seems to be 7s faster than bash (28s vs 35s) when running `make test', and just a hair faster than pdksh.

Herbert: patches #2 and #4 are required for dash, but not for pdksh. I'm not sure about #2, but I'm pretty certain the problem #4 works around is a bug in dash.

[PATCH 1/4] t3300-funny-names: shell portability fixes [PATCH 2/4] tests: Remove heredoc usage inside quotes [PATCH 3/4] t5500-fetch-pack: remove local (bashism) usage. [PATCH 4/4] t6000lib: workaround a possible dash bug
