Comment:
The invocation of sage-env from the top-level makefile is causing errors.
On sage.math:
{{{
. local/bin/sage-env && sage-starts && ./sage -tp 0 -sagenb -long
devel/sage/doc/common devel/sage/doc/en devel/sage/doc/fr devel/sage/sage
2>&1 | tee -a ptestlong.log
local/bin/sage-env: 70: Syntax error: Bad function name
make: *** [ptestlong] Error 2
}}}
On my mac:
{{{
. local/bin/sage-env && sage-starts && ./sage -tp 0 -sagenb -long
devel/sage/doc/common devel/sage/doc/en devel/sage/doc/fr devel/sage/sage
2>&1 | tee -a ptestlong.log
local/bin/sage-env: line 77: `contains-spaces': not a valid identifier
make: *** [ptestlong] Error 2
}}}
On t2.math:
{{{
. local/bin/sage-env && sage-starts && ./sage -tp 0 -sagenb -long
devel/sage/doc/common devel/sage/doc/en devel/sage/doc/fr devel/sage/sage
2>&1 | tee -a ptestlong.log
/bin/sh: contains-spaces: is not an identifier
make: *** [ptestlong] Error 1
}}}
In all cases, changing "contains-spaces" to "contains_spaces" seems to fix
the problem. I'm attaching a small patch to do this. (On Solaris
systems, I also see a new warning, presumably because we're not
redirecting output to /dev/null: after typing "make ptestlong", I see
{{{

Note the line {{{/bin/sh: source: not found}}}. Is this important? If
so, we should deal with it on another ticket...)
