[dslinux-devel] bash instead of sh in Makefile.xsh

Since ubuntu makes use of dash instead of plain sh (don't ask me
why...). This leads to a corss-compilation shell prompt like:
-xsh- \w >
which is pretty ugly.
I suggest to make Makefile.xsh run bash instead of sh. Very simple to
adopt and with no drawbacks (AFAIK).
