The mk that comes with Inferno "fails to fail" when building Inferno
sources on my Intel Mac on Mac OS X. The mk in Plan 9 from User Space
doesn't appear to have this problem.
Does anyone know of any specific differences between the two?
I wonder if I could use P9P's mk to help me get through my recompile
of Inferno for Mactels.

I should be more clear here obviously... When the compilation fails mk
from Inferno keeps on trucking instead of dying. This doesn't happen
with P9P mk.
In fact, P9P on Intel Macs doesn't work right now it seems.

i'm fairly sure now that it's a difference between bash and other sh in handling -e,
that being the main environmental difference between systems on which a
little test mkfile fails (sh is bash) and those on which it works (sh is not bash, as on FreeBSD).
