I don't plan to change my mind on this until/unless I get responses
from someone willing to work on maintenance, now and going forward. 
For example, until/unless someone tries to port GNU Make 4.4 to
AmigaOS.

The last version of GNU Make that was made to work on AmigaOS was 3.81
(as far as I am aware); that's the one that's been shipping with the
AmigaOS dev kits, and no one seems to have minded at all.  I doubt
anyone has tried to even compile a newer version and I'd be very
surprised if it worked.
