The bash dependency comes from osd_login (installed at
/sbin/osd_login) and start-statd (installed at /usr/sbin/start-statd).

The first one uses $BASHPID, and I'm not sure why $$ wasn't used.

The latter one (start-statd) uses the following shebang:
#!/bin/bash -p
I don't know if there's any POSIX equivalent that could be used.

All in all, I'm not familiar enough with the scripts (or with the 
differences between bash and POSIX shell behavior) to patch any of the 
scripts, so some help would be required here if the scripts should be 
changed.

As for the perl dependency, I just checked the RPM and it was not in 
there any more ... I'll double-check and come back with more details on 
this one.
