Has anyone confirmed for sure if ibm i os needs to worry about the
shellshock bug?

Only if you have explicity installed GNU bash or you have installed another service which included GNU bash.

From Terry Ford, an expert on IBM i security in Lab Services who reached out to someone in development:

If you wish to check your IBM i systems, the easiest way is to search for the 'bash' binary by doing the following:

CALL QP2TERM (i.e. invoke an interactive PASE session)

Run the following commands from PASE. Note the find command will probably take some time to run.

cd /
find . -name bash

On my particular system the find command returned this result:

./QOpenSys/usr/bin/bash

I then ran the following command to verify where the bash binary was installed:

ls -l
/QOpenSys/usr/bin/bash

lrwxrwxrwx 1 rwatkin 0 54 May 25 2011
/QOpenSys/usr/bin/bash -> ../../opt/freeware/bin/bash

End result: Bash is installed here /opt/freeware/bin/bash. From personal experience I know that this is the location used when installing some of the open source binaries using one of the methods documented on the Yips website...
