Hmmm, sh logic doesn't work like I thought, apparently.

What we have here is a mix of things which must succeed and things which 
don't have to.  Your version makes one of the latter mandatory, which 
can make it fail unnecessarily.

I've checked in something that should have the effect you want.  Can you 
try it on your bakefile-less system?  I'd rather not remove Bakefile 
here just to test that it fails gracefully on such a system.
