Nice to see you saying that, because I was wondering if a good build tool
needs any external dependencies at all in the terms of shell scripts.
The only things I can envision are things like compiler compilers and such
tools that need to generate file X from template file Y.

I agree to that. I am just hard thinking if this is a reasonable
assumption. I cannot envision much right now that need external shell
scripting or such given a sufficiently decent command set inside the build
tool.
