OSLib 6.70 on RISC OS: no '-f' in readvarval.AMUmakefile

Right, so I started out generating OSLib with a fresh machine and a
fresh CVS checkout.

This is the second of a (short) series of problems I encountered.

Setup: Sources checked out on Red Hat Linux with commands as given on
webpage (tag oslib-670). RiscPC with RISC OS 4.02 connected with
SunFish to NFS share on Unix where sources can be found. Converted
sources with RISCOSify. Using recent Acorn/Castle/Norcroft 32-bit compiler.
(And yes, double-clicked !OsLib to set environment. (:-)

While making Source.Test.readvarval: 

amu -desktop -f ADFS::Csite.$.Comms.SunFish.Lin-RISCOS.ro-oslib670.OSLib.
   !OsLib.Source.Test.readvarval.AMUmakefile all APCS=32
cdir o
cc -apcs 3/32  -c -ffah   -throwback -IC:,OSLib:  c.readvarval -o o.readvarval
Norcroft RISC OS ARM C vsn 5.54 [04 Apr 2003]
Link -output readvarval o.readvarval C:o.stubs OSLib:OSLib32.o
AMU -desktop ADFS::Csite.$.Comms.SunFish.Lin-RISCOS.ro-oslib670.OSLib.!OsLib.
   Source.Test.readvarval.AMUmakefile run
Makefile: would not open
AMU: error reading makefile
AMU: *** exit (1) ***
[ long lines split and indented ]

In ...!OsLib.Source.Test.readvarval.AMUmakefile the '-f' in the Make
command (target 'run') on before the name of the makefile on line 55 is
missing.

Adding the -f solves the problem.
