I'm not sure I understand why you ask for it.
Do you mean that we should write the command as if it were without the "-"?
Can this make any difference?
On a second thought, the two rm calls should be independent:
-test -z "$(MAINTAINERCLEANFILES)" || \
{ rm -f $(MAINTAINERCLEANFILES) ; \
cd $(srcdir) && rm -f $(MAINTAINERCLEANFILES); }
Have a nice day,
Stepan
