If this is true, x2go's behavior is completely wrong. It shouldn't rely on
something like "default" shell but only use scripts with a correct hashbang to
be sure they get executed whatever the system *expects*, (x)or be using POSIX
features only and thus ensure execution in any POSIX compatible shell (is there
any non-POSIX compatible shell?)
