It would be good idea, although "POSIX-compliant shells" implies
coreutils somewhat; shell scripts usually do require some utilities,
like sed, grep, cat, test etc.

I think it would.  It would allow us also to uncomment the
AC_PROG_INSTALL line in configure.ac file to find 'install'
automatically (autoconf requires having install.sh or install-sh
fallback in the sources).

The problem is coming up with minimal yet portable (at least as
portable as git itself) fallback install.sh script.
