BTW: Just did some further research and i'm actually confused what my
sh.exe here is now :D. I found some posting on this mailing list that
says the postinstall script should copy bash.exe to sh.exe in the
postinstall script. I just re-installed bash to make sure, but sh.exe
still differs (sh.exe 538KB, bash.exe 439KB). If i run bash test-script
(or ash test-script), it works fine :)
