It may have something to do with the fact that the function you
provided has a different name.

I also agree with a previous poster: you should be using the standard
`make' tool which comes on any reasonably configured Unix system.
Writing a shell script is not only reinventing the wheel, but also the
inclined plane, the lever, the hammer, and (probably) the rock. :-)
