Note that a better way of doing this is through pacman hooks:

```
[eschwartz at arch /tmp/bash-nosh]$ cat /etc/pacman.d/hooks/sh-is-dash.hook
[Trigger]
Type = Package
Operation = Install
Operation = Upgrade
Target = bash

[Action]
Description = Re-pointing /bin/sh symlink to dash...
When = PostTransaction
Exec = /usr/bin/ln -sf dash /usr/bin/sh
Depends = dash
```

This allows me to use the repo packages, rather than maintaining forked
copies, and at the same time ensures sh will always use dash, assuming
dash is available.
