Foreach is just a simple string processing function. It has no idea
that "ln -s $(srcfile) ." is actually a command, so the output of the
foreach expansion is just one long list of words. That's not a valid
command. You need to add a delimiter to separate each ls invocation,
e.g. "$(foreach srcfile, $(TESTSTUB_SOURCES), ln -s $(srcfile) . ;)".
