lisp: fix a failure with Solaris /usr/xpg4/bin/sh
* lib/am/lisp.am (.el.elc): By initializing the 'am__dir' properly here. For most shells, the lacking initialization, while technically incorrect, didn't cause any issue in practice, because in those shells "test -d" returns an exit status of 0. But with /usr/xpg4/bin/sh, the shell complains like this: "test: argument expected", and returns a non-zero exit status. This caused testsuite failures in several lisp tests. Also, while we are at it, use more proper quoting in the recipe, to ensure a missing initialization to now be caught by more forgiving shells as well. * NEWS: Update.
