[bug #18369] pattern rules don't work with spaces in filenames

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #18369 (project make):

Hmm, short question, why does it work with make 3.80:

$ make380 -v
GNU Make 3.80
Copyright (C) 2002  Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.

PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

$ mkdir test
$ cd test
$ touch 'test with spaces.c'
$ make380 'test with spaces.o'
cc    -c -o test with spaces.o test with spaces.c
cc: cannot specify -o with -c or -S and multiple compilations
make380: *** [test with spaces.o] Error 1
$ 

at least the pattern matching works, and with the following Makefile it even
compiles:

.SUFFIXES:
.SUFFIXES: .o

%.o: %.c
        $(CC) -o "$@" $(CFLAGS) -c "$<"

$ make380 'test with spaces.o'
cc -o "test with spaces.o"  -c "test with spaces.c"
$
