Try symlinking /bin/sh to /bin/bash1. That ought to fix everythin right
up. Doing a "make menuconfig" on the kernel will also result in a
segfault, which is also bash's fault. I'll be working on the default
shell issue here in a few days. But for now, this is because of bash2.

Yep. That's how we're doing package names on the ports. I don't know if
Slackware Intel is going to move towards that or not, but those of us in
port land sure do like knowing which architecture we're dealing with.
