Re: Bug report

[Johan Bezem]

Please keep the mails on the list (reply-to set).

To start with, I just need the regular stdout from a normal call to make,
using the problematic version, possibly with a binary correct (as
attachment) version of the problematic makefile. If I need more, I'll shout.

But then again: make version 3.77 is 'terribly' old. Could you try again
using 3.79.1 or 3.80. and see if it still fails? Maybe Paul has some
knowledge about such errors being present in older versions, however, I've
only got experience since 3.79.
