Inputs don't add themselves to the PATH environment variable, which is
required for invoke in this case. So you want to do something like:
(setenv "PATH"
(string-append
(assoc-ref %build-inputs "bash") "/bin" ":"
(getenv "PATH")))
Or you could just invoke in another way:
(invoke "make" (string-append "SHELL=" (assoc-ref %build-inputs "bash") "/bin/bash") "...")
Oleg.
