Re: Enhancement request regarding make variable names

   Are you able to "quote" these special characters such that they
   would be interpreted the way you'd like?

I don't know if "make" provides a quoting mechanism.  And since the
offending "=" appears inside a string generated by a "pwd" that is
invoked inside the makefile, it would be hard to apply.

However, as someone else noted, Linux 2.6's build system seems to have
avoided the problem a different way.

It would probably be a significant improvement if the documentation
was updated to match the current reality, though.
