User had bash installed to /usr/local/bin/bash and NB failed to find toolchains: http://forums.netbeans.org/viewtopic.php?p=19368
First, now remote isn't tied so closely with bash. But even if it was, note that any bash script starts with #!/bin/bash, not with #/usr/local/bin/bash - so most things that require bash won't work if there are no bash in standard location. The workaround is quite simple - create a link.
