problem with  make -C gnu/dismal install

install: cannot stat 'work/dismal-1.4/*.{el,elc}': No such file or directory
make: *** [install-el] Error 1

from Makefile:
        for ell in $(WORKSRC)/*.{el,elc}; do  \

The problem is { and } have special meaning to "make" so don't
get through to the shell.

The fix is:


        for el in $(WORKSRC)/*.el  $(WORKSRC)/*.elc ; do \


Took a couple hours to figure that one out...
