'export SHELL := /bin/bash' worked like a charm! Thanks!

Hello John! :-)
Hello all!

Do you mean that /bin/sh points to bash? Or do you mean that your shell
is bash? This is not the same!

make does _not_ read the SHELL from the environement, it uses /bin/sh
 as
shell, which can well be different from the shell specified in
 /etc/passwd
for your account.

You tell make to use a specific shell by setting SHELL in the Makefile,
 such
as (as the second line in ct-ng):

export SHELL := /bin/bash

I'm fixing this anyway, as it is a real problem, even if not yours.

Its 00:40AM in France, and I'm getting tired. 5 more minutes before I
 go to
sleep. So don't expect anything in svn before tomorrow evening (when
 I'm back
from work).
