Follow-up Comment #2, bug #44464 (project make):

What I'm using it for is a way to create a number of functions that can be
used like $(if) but they test a specific condition and only evaluate either
the true or false part, not both.  For example:

{{{

$(setstate if_something, $(ifdef some_variable, true, false))

# ... later on ...

$(if_something $(info yes), $(error no))

}}}


With existing make syntax I'd need to do something like this:

{{{

$(if $(filter undefined, $(origin some_variable)), $(info yes), $(error no))

}}}

... in order to avoid having $(error) kill the build.
