  1. /bin/sh: !: not found

    Hi.
    
    I using version from CVS, and after update tried to run `make
    distclean'. For some reason my GNUMakefile was deleted, so Makefile is
    used by gmake and I got an error message (see Subj)
    
    The reason is 
    	@if ! [ -f GNUmakefile ] ; then \
               ^^^ in the Makefile
    
    To fix it should be changed to
    	@if [ ! -f GNUmakefile ] ; then \
    
    This problem exists in Makefile and src/Makefile, maybe somethere else
    
    
    Regards,
    ASK

    Fixed.  Thanks.
    
    (Btw., it's normal that GNUmakefile is removed during 'make distclean'.)
