Hmmm...

I don't think so... Why then removing the "rm -rf" lines works? i.e. 
leaving:

!
!   gfortran[-mp-X] [-Warray-temporaries] -O3 -Wall \
!     -Wno-unused-dummy-argument $BLD_OPTS -J ~/programming/modules \
!     ~/programming/basic-modules/{kind,math}_consts.f90 \
!     ~/programming/ode-modules/{everhart_integrator,\
!       cernlib_integrators}.f90 test_jsunp.f90 -o test_jsunp$EXE && \
!
!   ./test_jsunp$EXE

works and the lines have the '\'. I think now I have understood the 
culprit. It is the '/*' in those lines which causes the failure. In 
other words, this comment works:

!
!   rm -rf {*.mod,~/programming/modules} && \
!   gfortran[-mp-X] [-Warray-temporaries] -O3 -Wall \
!     -Wno-unused-dummy-argument $BLD_OPTS -J ~/programming/modules \
!     ~/programming/basic-modules/{kind,math}_consts.f90 \
!     ~/programming/ode-modules/{everhart_integrator,\
!       cernlib_integrators}.f90 test_jsunp.f90 -o test_jsunp$EXE && \
!     rm -rf {*.mod,~/programming/modules}
!
!   ./test_jsunp$EXE

maybe '/*' is interpreted as a C open comment...

Thanks in any case,

   Angelo.
