 Fixed.

 > In principle, you can now omit the outer test ({{{if [ -f ... ];
 then}}}) and simply redirect stderr to {{{/dev/null}}} inside the
 backquotes.

 Okay, but it also works this way, and seems readable to me this way, so
 I'm leaving it as is.

 > According to Dave, we no longer use variables for simple (POSIX)
 commands like {{{mkdir}}} and {{{cp}}} etc., but I don't mind.

 You're right, the scripts in local/bin use "mkdir", not "$MKDIR", so I've
 changed that, too.
