I suppose you have to consider that autoconf is a FSF thing so it
will try to find GNU stuff first, much as it will default to GCC over
Solaris Studio, gawk over nawk etc.

The stuff in /usr/xpg4/bin would be POSIX compliant but frankly, it is
easier to adjust scripts to work with Solaris' /bin/sh (as David has now
done) than to have it dig around trying to find the POSIX stuff.
