Just added busybox:sys-apps/busybox to the ALTERNATIVES array, working as it should; might want it for other alternatives too where POSIX conformance is possible (not awk). For completeness, we might want to check busybox's config to see that's it's configured "properly" (e.g. no CONFIG_FEATURE_SH_STANDALONE=y), but I don't think we can dump busybox's current config.
Looks like we may be able to do: $ busybox bbconfig | grep -i CONFIG_FEATURE_SH_STANDALONE CONFIG_FEATURE_SH_STANDALONE=y
Created attachment 845497 [details, diff] app-alternatives-sh-busybox.patch How does this look?
