Unfortunately most of the admins refuse to open their eyes on this
issue, and even go as far as to recommend "set -e" for script
submissions. The state of misunderstanding of how subshells work
and how make(1) relies specifically on subshells is poor and there
seems to be nothing that can be done about it. Some will simply not
listen to reason. I will take a look at gtk-qt-engine tomorrow when
I have time and update the repository if necessary. Thanks for the
report.
