>Description:
Ubuntu uses dash as /bin/sh. In dash, the shell test expression -nt evaluates to 1==false if the second operand doesn't exist (as compared to bash where it evaluate to 0==true).


This breaks module building for package lang/clisp (per-module Makefile in e.g. src/i18n is never generated and recursive make invocation with target clisp-module fails).
>How-To-Repeat:
Build lang/clisp on a system with /bin/sh == dash, e.g. recent Ubuntu.




>Fix:
This is ultimately a bug in the clisp build system, but until that's fixed upstream:
