[freeside-users] Odd issue when running freeside-setup

[Ivan Kohler]

This was fixed in May 2010 and included in the 1.9.4 and 2.1.1 releases:

       * Makefile: fix "-e DBI:Pg:dbname=freeside" datasrc winding up in
          secrets as a result of weird implementations of echo as a shell
          builtin that ignore -e
