Try it and see :) If the shell that runs it (bash) is compatible
with the shell the script is designed for (bash probably), then I
don't see any reason why it shouldn't work. The worst I can think of
is that the script might make some assumptions about the initial
state of bash, but they shouldn't be too indifferent.
