So, is the issue because some platforms are shipping a non-compatible
version of sh, or is the script incorrectly using bash while only
claiming to use sh?
The problem is the evaluation with $( ):
bootstrap: syntax error at line 88: `me_=$’ unexpected
The Solaris Bourne Shell is really one of the „very oldest“ non-POSIX-compatible
Bourne shells:

Last time I talked with Jim Meyering about the problem (unfortunately off-list)
he said that if you bootstrap stuff you are a developer which is expected to
have
bash at hand. Here, bash is considered similar to autotools which you also need
only to bootstrap.
