In the Makefile the first `suite` was wrapped in curly braces. And I
think we need to keep them in this script as well. I noticed because I
was reviewing this code in my editor I've noticed it highlights
"source__" as the variable name. You can see what happens if you add
`set -x` to the top of the script:

    $ make t/unit-tests/clar-decls.h V=1
    /bin/sh t/unit-tests/generate-clar-decls.sh "t/unit-tests/clar-decls.h" t/unit-tests/ctype.c t/unit-tests/strvec.c
    + test 3 -lt 2
    + OUTPUT=t/unit-tests/clar-decls.h
    + shift
    + for suite in "$@"
    + sed -ne 's/^\(void test_[a-zA-Z_0-9][a-zA-Z_0-9]*(void)$\)/extern \1;/p' t/unit-tests/ctype.c
    + for suite in "$@"
    + sed -ne 's/^\(void test_[a-zA-Z_0-9][a-zA-Z_0-9]*(void)$\)/extern \1;/p' t/unit-tests/strvec.c

So it seems the script currently works "by accident".

You should replace the first $suite with something like:

    $(basename $suite .c)

One other suggestion, and feel free to disagree. What do you think about
replacing the `$(patsubst ...)` in the recipe to `$(filter %.c,$^)`?
