patch to unbreak evince build on FreeBSD 8

The build of graphics/evince on FreeBSD 8 fails:

gmake[2]: Entering directory
'/wrkdirs/usr/ports/graphics/evince/work/evince-3.14.1/browser-plugin'

Comparing config.log for FreeBSD 8 and FreeBSD 10, I found this difference:

FreeBSD 8:
BROWSER_PLUGIN_DIR='${libdir/mozilla/plugins}'

FreeBSD 10:
BROWSER_PLUGIN_DIR='${libdir}/mozilla/plugins'

The former looks incorrect, probably due to an unpatched shell bug in FreeBSD
8,
so I decided to try setting CONFIG_SHELL to bash in the port Makefile, which
avoided the shell bug and allowed the build to succeed.
