Description
With MinGw 3.1.0 and MSys 1.0.10, as of r7535 in ffmpeg head svn, ffmpeg will no longer compile in the mingw build environment.
The error is in the configure script shell detection. It claims a broken shell when in fact the shell is fine.
The bash version is :
GNU bash, version 2.04.0(1)-release (i686-pc-msys)
Copyright 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
The configure script tries to explicitly detect and reject this version of bash. However, removing this shell detection results in a perfectly usable library.
Therefore, the attached patch removes the broken shell tests.

The shell test checks for specific features. If the test fails, the rest of the script might not work properly. That it appears to work for you does in no way mean that the library is correctly built, or that it would work with other configurations.
