After bash has built, it overwrites the /bin/sh symlink to busybox with a (IIRC) hard link to bash. That should work for you and keep you from having to build other packages. I don't recall, but I may have modified the busybox config to not build the 'sh' parts, but I do not remember and my git repo is not convenient at this time.
