emacs -Q

I tried to send a bug report using Help > Send bug report. When I hit C-c C-c, I
got this error:

Searching for program: no such file or directory, /bin/bash.

So I'm typing this into my mail client, Outlook, directly (copying and pasting
the version info etc.).

I would like to know a workaround soon, so I can send other bug reports in the
normal way. I have no problem sending bug reports in any Emacs release (20
through 23.1), and I've never previously had a problem sending a report for any
pretest version.
