Since mybuild is invoked as part of a compound command, set -e is
suppressed. I guess this applies not only to set -e that's invoked
beforehand, but even to set -e that's set within the compound command.
Stop using set -e and all of these problems simply go away.
mybuild() {
make && echo "build okay"
}
mybuild && do_other_stuff
