It is because there is no Config.pm already when write_buildcustomize.pl is running. Perhaps Cwd module should fall back to /system/bin/sh when $Config​::Config{sh} is undefined.

Sounds feasible. Could you try making a change and seeing if that
helps? Inserting an elsif (-x ...) in Cwd.pm for this special sh?

Hm.. I can see how this could happen, and have pushed the fix as

That being said, i wasn't able to reproduce it; may I ask how you're
