It was working fine, but the style wasn't exactly the way I like it, because
I'm unnecessarily picky. :)
Also, removed the file extension since we should probably learn from the
fact that it's already been rewritten once from one language to another.
Who knows, maybe it will be again someday.
This comes down to the lack of a 'seq' command (what?!) and the fact that
BSD "wc -l" returns extra whitespace, while the GNU version doesn't. We
should be using numeric comparisons instead of string comparisons, and then
it's ok.
...only when running under minimal/do, of course.
The tests in question mostly fail because they're testing particular
dependency-related behaviour, and minimal/do doesn't support dependencies,
so naturally it doesn't work.
If a file previously was generated but now isn't (ie. its .do file
disappears), we would never re-stamp that target, and so all its
dependencies would rebuild continually.
