Only the tests are affected, as far as I can tell.  make runs fine.
The issue with “gnu/local.mk” from [1] got fixed in 2019 via
92d00ca4661e186022732a47956a2bc0ef16be96.

But Makefile.am has 

SH_LOG_COMPILER = $(top_builddir)/test-env $(SHELL)
AM_SH_LOG_FLAGS = -x -e

Probably autoconf can be made to detect if $(SHELL) is bash or zsh
somehow™.  But I suppose it is not important and I won’t fix it.

Regards,
Florian
