      We use a number of build slaves. Some are Windows, some are Linux.

      On the Windows machines we'd like to script using Cygwin, but the shell setting
      is a master configuration.

      So shell can be set to /bin/sh to work for Linux, or c:/cygwin/bash.exe to work
      on Windows using Cygwin, but can't support both.

      It would be nice if the shell setting can be a slave configuration so we can
      configure the Windows machines to use c:/cygwin/bash.exe for a shell and Linux
      machines to use /bin/sh.

      That way we can use shell commands for everything and don't have to use the
      horrible Windows batch commands.
