Public bug reported:

Neutron's pep8 tox env checks for bash usage [1], but it's increasingly
common to ignore the check because sh doesn't support very useful things
like arrays.  Given that bash usage is almost entirely dev-only, I'm not
sure why we should be requiring lowest-common-denominator vs simply
requiring that dev platforms have bash.  netbsd includes bash in its
ports collection, after all.
