Suggested resolution:

Use /bin/dash instead of /bin/sh for scripts that are desired to run fast, and revert the change.

If you like ./configure running faster, then patch the code so that ./configure has #!/bin/dash.

This change has obviously caused regressions, and should be considered a high priority bug that should be fixed, not justified.
