Your workaround is reasonable for someone who's gone above and beyond
Ubuntu :-) but it seems to me that the real problem here is that
runFrost.sh must have a shebang line of "#! /bin/sh".  If it absolutely
needs bash, file a bug against frostwire asking them to fix it to
be "#! /bin/bash", then it doesn't matter what the default shell is.

Personally, it seems unlikely that faster-dapper is going to help me much,
at least in this regard.  I don't run many shell scripts that take any
great amount of time, and when I'm _in_ the shell, I want all the bashisms.
